The term «United Nations» was coined by Franklin D. Roosevelt during
World War II, to refer to the Allies. Its first formal use was in the January
1, 1942 Declaration by the United Nations, which committed the Allies to the
principles of the Atlantic Charter and pledged them not to seek a separate
peace with the Axis powers. Thereafter, the Allies used the term «United
Nations Fighting Forces » to refer to their alliance.
The idea for the United Nations was elaborated in declarations
signed at the wartime Allied conferences in Moscow, Cairo, and Tehran in 1943. From August to October 1944, representatives of France, the Republic of
China, the United Kingdom, the United States, and the USSR met to elaborate the plans in Washington, D.C. Those and later talks produced proposals
outlining the purposes of the organization, its membership and organs, as well
as arrangements to maintain international peace and security and international
economic and social cooperation. These proposals were discussed and debated by
governments and private citizens worldwide.
On April 25, 1945, the United Nations Conference on International
Organizations began in San Francisco. In addition to the Governments, a number-of
non-government organizations were invited to assist in the drafting of the
charter. The 50 nations represented at the conference signed the Charter of the
United Nations two months later on June 26. Poland, which was not represented
at the conference, but for which a place among the original signatories had
been reserved, added its name later, bringing the total of original signatories
to 51. The UN came into existence on October 24, 1945, after the Charter had
been ratified by the five permanent members of the Security Council — Republic
of China, France, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, and the United States —
and by a majority of the other 46 signatories.
The United Nations headquarters building was constructed in New York City in 1949 and 1950 beside the East River on land purchased by an 8.5 million
dollar donation from John D. Rockefeller, Jr., and designed by architect Oscar
Niemeyer. UN headquarters officially opened on January 9, 1951. While the
principal headquarters of the UN are in New York, there are major agencies
located in Geneva, The Hague, Vienna, Montreal, Bonn.
UN membership is open to all peace-loving states that accept the
obligations of the UN Charter and, in the judgement of the organization, are
able and willing to fulfill these obligations.
История Организации Объединенных Наций (ООН)
Термин
«Организация Объединённых Наций» (ООН) был придуман Франклином Рузвельтом в его
обращениях к союзникам . Первое формальное использование этого термина прошло 1
января 1942 года. В декларации Объединенных Наций 1942 года связал союзников с
принципами Атлантического договора и обязал их добиться сепаратного мира с
государствами Оси. После чего союзники использовали термин «боевые силы
Объединенных Наций» в обращении к своим союзникам.
Идея
Объединенных Наций была выработана в декларациях, подписанных во время войны на
конференциях союзников в Москве, Каире и Тегеране в 1943 году. С августа по
октябрь 1944 года представители Франции, Республики Китай, Великобритании, США
и СССР встретились в Вашингтоне, округ
Колумбия,
для выработки планов. Эти, а также последующие переговоры и предложения
выстроили цели организации, ее органов и членов этой организации, а также
договоренности о поддержании мира и безопасности, международного экономического
и социального сотрудничества. Данные предложения обсуждались и оспаривались
правительствами и частными лицами по всему миру.
25
апреля 1945 года в Сан-Франциско началась конференция ООН. Помимо правительств,
были приглашены многочисленные неправительственные организации для выработки
Устава ООН. Пятьдесят государств, присутствовавших на конференции, двумя
месяцами позже, 26 июня подписали Устав ООН. Польша, не присутствовавшая на
конференции, но для которой место среди стран-основательниц было
зарезервировано, добавила свое имя позже, доведя, таким образом, число стран —
основательниц организации до 51 государства. ООН появилась 24 октября 1945 года
после ратификации Устава ООН пятью постоянными членами Совета безопасности —
Республика Китая, СССР, Великобритания, Франция и США — и большинством других
стран-основательниц.
Здание
штаб-квартиры ООН было построено в Нью-Йорке в 1949-50 годах возле реки
Ист-Ривер на земле, приобретенной за 8, 5 миллиона долларов, подаренных Д.
Рокфеллером-младшим. Здание было спроектировано архитектором Оскаром Нимейером.
Штаб-квартира официально открылась 9 января 1951 года. В то время как главная
штаб-квартира ООН находится в Нью-Йорке, есть также основные агентства в Женеве,
Гааге, Вене, Монреале, Бонне.
Членство
в ООН открыто для любой миролюбивой страны, которая принимает требования Устава
Организации Объединённых Наций, и по суждению этой организации способна и
жаждет выполнять эти обязательства.
