On May 22 in New York Armenia was elected members of the United
Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) for the term
of six years.
The United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL)
was established by the General Assembly in 1966. In establishing
the Commission, the General Assembly recognized that disparities
in national laws governing international trade created obstacles to
the flow of trade, and it regarded the Commission as the vehicle by
which the United Nations could play a more active role in reducing
or removing these obstacles.
The General Assembly gave the Commission the general mandate to
further the progressive harmonization and unification of the law of
international trade.
The Commission has since come to be the core legal body of the United
Nations system in the field of international trade law.
The Commission is composed of sixty member States elected by the
General Assembly. Membership is structured so as to be representative
of the world's various geographic regions and its principal economic
and legal systems.
Members of the Commission are elected for terms of six years, the
terms of half the members expiring every three years.
