$2.6 BILLION FOR 12 PEACEKEEPING MISSIONS FOR 2002-2003
CORRECTION
On page 20 of Press Release GA/AB/3512 of 17 June, the statement by the representative of Japan should read, as follows:
The representative of Japan, speaking in explanation of position, said that with regard to the payment of assessments for the peacekeeping budget, the Assembly should express its appreciation to all Member States that had paid their assessed contributions regardless of the timing of the payment. Some draft resolutions mentioned that payments were made on time and in full, while others did not. Japan agreed to the present text on the understanding that operative paragraph two of the text by no means devalued the payments by all other Member States.
