Criminal+accountability+of+United+Nations+officials+and+experts+on+mission.

United nations officials and experts on mission represent the United Nations, they should not behave as mere citizens, but as more. By all means this does not mean that they are better then common citizens, but they are looked upon as help, as //officials//, as people there to serve the citizens, and for these officials and experts to take advantage of their position is manipulative, and wrong. It is unfortunate when such instances occur, because of the way in which locals think of these personnel. Therefore, it is necessary that a policy is developed to address this situation. So as to maintain the reputation of UN operations, and not to be thought of as a corrupt, and harmful, rather than helpful organization. The states are also asked to clarify jurisdiction, regarding serious crimes. States are also encouraged to cooperate with each other and with the United Nations when and if an investigation occurs so that information can be passed back and forth quickly and easily. Reemphasizing the responsibility and action that each state and UN org. must take when such crimes occur. Understandably, the states wherein the crimes occur should be the actors that instigate the criminal proceedings. However, there are many countries that do not possess the legal personnel and knowledge to investigate and try United Nations experts and officials. And therefore, this policy underlines that the UN must and should take part in the proceedings, to make sure they are lawful and just, for the nations, as well as their personals in question.

Every country views certain actions differently, therefore it is possible that the United Nations does need to mandate some sort of training session to ensure that every one of their officials and experts is on the same page regarding policies.
