Visita del Grupo de expertos \"sobre mercenarios\" de la ONU a Afganistán (menudo nombre tiene el Working Group)
Expert group on mercenaries concludes visit to Afghanistan

Source: United Nations Human Rights Council; United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR)
Date: 08 Apr 2009

The United Nations Working Group on the use of mercenaries as a means of impeding the exercise of the right of peoples to self-determination, represented by Amada Benavides de Perez and Alexander Nikitin, concluded its five-day visit to Afghanistan today. The objectives of the visit were to discuss with Government authorities and relevant stakeholders the scope and nature of the activities of private military and security companies in Afghanistan and their impact on the enjoyment of human rights. The Working Group also gathered information about national efforts to regulate such companies in the context of its current work on elaborating a new international convention on private military and security companies.

The Working Group was particularly interested to learn about the draft law on private security companies introduced to Parliament on 6 April and looks forward to following closely developments in this regard and the speedy adoption of legislation and other measures which would ensure oversight and monitoring by the State of private security companies and their full accountability, and full protection of human rights, including the right of victims to an effective remedy.

In Kabul, the Working Group met with representatives of the Office of the President, Ministries of Foreign Affairs, Justice, Interior and Defence, as well as the chairs and members of the Committee on Legislative Affairs of the Wolesi Jirga, and the Committee on Internal Security, National Security and Local Organs of Power of the Meshrano Jirga. The Group also had the opportunity to meet with representatives of the Afghan Independent Human Rights Commission and heard the views of civil society and representatives of the industry. Meetings were also held with representatives of the international community, including the Embassies of the United States and the United Kingdom, as well as the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan and specialized agencies. The Working Group also visited Jalalabad, where it met with the Provincial Governor and other authorities.

The Working Group discussed the challenges facing the Government of Afghanistan vis-à-vis the current security situation, the growth in both national and international private security companies, and the Government\'s vision and plans to ensure protection of the population and the control of the use of force by the State. It notes the concerns of the Government and its efforts to ensure regulation of private security companies, including the February 2008 \"Procedure for Regulating Activities of Private Security Companies in Afghanistan\" as an interim measure, as well as its effective implementation. The Working Group will continue to follow with interest the current legislative process.

The Working Group also received information about the impact of international and national private security companies on Afghan society and on the human rights and security situation. Questions of accountability of non-State actors, the rights of victims to an effective remedy and the regulatory structure for private security companies were also discussed as important concerns in ensuring the protection of human rights in Afghanistan.

The information received about national measures to regulate the industry will greatly assist the Working Group in its current work to elaborate a new international convention on private military and security companies. In view of the current scarcity of examples of national legislation to address this phenomenon, the experience of Afghanistan will be an important contribution to this endeavour. The Working Group looks forward to the Government of Afghanistan\'s valuable contribution.

The Working Group will draw up a detailed report on its visit to Afghanistan, which will be presented to the Human Rights Council and reflected in the forthcoming report to the next session of the General Assembly.

The Working Group expresses its gratitude to the Government of Afghanistan for the invitation extended to its members to visit the country and would also like to express its appreciation for the constructive dialogue it has held with several ministries and relevant stakeholders, including civil society and the international community.

The Working Group on the use of mercenaries was established in 2005 by the Commission on Human Rights. It is mandated by the United Nations General Assembly and the United Nations Human Rights Council to, inter alia, monitor and study the effects on the enjoyment of human rights, particularly the right to self-determination, of the activities of private companies offering military assistance, consultancy and security services on the international market, and to engage in the elaboration of new legal instruments for regulation of activities of private military and security companies.

The Working Group is composed of five independent experts serving in their personal capacities, and headed by its Chairperson-Rapporteur, Ms. Shaista Shameem (Fiji). The other Working Group experts are: Ms. Najat al-Hajjaji (Libya), Ms. Amada Benavides de Pérez (Colombia), Mr. José Luis Gómez del Prado (Spain) and Mr. Alexander Nikitin (Russian Federation).

Y nos seguimos quedando atrás mientras el resto del mundo adopta las PMCs a marchas forzadas.

Desde la última actualización que nos puso Flanco Sur se han sumado:


Imagen

Grecia
Portugal
Chile
Liechtenstein
Qatar
Uruguay

Eso sin contar otros países de la UE que emplean PMCs aunque aún no se hayan suscrito al Documento Montreux, como es el caso de Italia y Rumanía, o que OTAN, ONU, OSCE, y demás organismos multinacionales también empleen PMCs de forma rutinaria.

Nos volverá a pillar el toro, no me extraña que alguna empresa española haya decidido registrarse directamente fuera :wink:

Hola Loopster:

- La última reforma a la actual Ley de Seguridad Privada 23/92 es del 14.09.2007 y está desarrollada y complementada por Decretos, Reales Decretos, Ordenes, Resoluciones y todo tipo de normativa legal imaginable y parches interminable pero dentro de un límites a nivel de armamento, organización, desarrollo tecnológico MUYYYY ESTRECHOS o sea que por aquí vamos mal. Utilizar esta Ley para "experimentos" para-militares, pues no...

- Por otra parte la externalización del ejército o de servicios militares es bastante tabú: por desconocimiento del mercando: como se va a legislar sobre algo que no se conoce y que además está todo en inglés? :D ,por miedo a que se pierdan "relaciones comerciales" establecidas desde hace décadas,porque no hay interés ni necesidad en modernizar un ejército que sólo acude a misiones "humanitarias" etc.

Detrás de las PMC se abren mercados a muchas empresas (telecomunicaciones, ingenierías, construcción etc) y fluyen nuevas relaciones internacionales comerciales y políticas

pero claro, como aquí nos sobra el empleo y la diplomacia.... :mrgreen:
Como dices tú, cuando aquí se despierten, todo el pescado estará vendido!!!!!!!!!!

Y el caso es que estos días hay una reunión donde sin ningún empacho se va a soltar que la seguridad privada española es como hay que hacer las cosas. Que esto de las PMCs es únicamente cosa de los americanos. Y sin embargo ahí andan 6 de los países del G8, países "irrelevantes" como China, media Europa,...

¿Dónde estarán esos que aseguraban que en España no nos uniríamos a Montreux? ¿y esas frases de "el Gobierno ya ha tomada su decisión y no pasa por las PMCs"?

El año que viene celebro el 20 de mayo :mrgreen:

Hola a todos

Al parecer España ha reculado como un cangrejo y rectificado. De sabios es rectificar, aunque seamos los 30 de la lista...
Todavía queda alguien con sentido común.

Enhorabuena a los foreros que advertísteis la barbarie de estirar la Ley de Seguridad Privada como un chicle. Ahí les han dado la primera de frente :mrgreen:

A veces la Administración Pública parece olvidarse que se debe siempre a criterios de eficiencia y eficacia (Ley 30/92) y no puede dar la espalda a la legislación internacional por muy novedosa que sea o por intereses particulares que amenace.

PD: por cierto encontré un intento regulatorio bastante antiguo, para quien le interese:

"A Proclamation Prohibiting His Majesties Subjects to Enter into the Service of Foreign Princes
and Lands, Sovereign, 1685–1688: James II, England and Wales"
