sanctions against terrorist groups after attacks in pakistan and afghanistan. the united states has described an attack as unjustifiable and unwarranted. a member of the committee explains how serious this incident is. >> it is very serious in terms of the breach of diplomatic etiquette. an attack anywhere in the world is considered a serious breach. in this particular case, which they have been doing is going out and meeting with people from the opposition common and and this has been increasingly annoying the syrian regime, who love tried to stop them from doing that, and i suspect this is just an escalation to the next stage, where in trying to intimidate them and prevent them from going out, they brought out supporters of the regime, and have them attack. it is very interesting to trace the movements, because it is clearly marked. i would like to say one other thing. we are very grateful to the opposition for taking on this road. it is very important to us, and the fact he is willing to actually put his life in danger in support of the syrian people, we are grateful for that. >> how do you assess the uprising in general? it has been six months. and where is

security like those on the use of sanctions and force -- another area where the logic of power is manifested ever more clearly in international relations is the third committee of the united nations general assembly and the united nations human rights counsel. though it's said reform is intended to put an end to polarization and double standards in dealing with human rights issues, there's still remaining the reality whereby specific countries are selected for discussion on their human right situations where as major human right violaters are passed over in silence all in accord of the west and criteria of western values. it is our view that the reform process of the human rights body should be intensified so as to enhance the system to ensure freedoms on the rights of peoples of all countries respecting their diverse history and culture, ideas, and systems. meanwhile, progress has been made in the field of sustainable development. one of the three goals set by the u.n. over the last two decades following the real declaration on development; however, we still face tremendous challenges. we considered the u.n. conference on sustain the development to be held
