Sixty-fifth session (2005)第六十五届会议(2005年)
The Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination,消除种族歧视委员会,
Recalling the Charter of the United Nations and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, according to which all human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights and are entitled to the rights and freedoms enshrined therein without distinction of any kind, and the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination,回顾了《联合国宪章》和《世界人权宣言》,其中规定人人都生而自由,生而具有尊严和权利平等,都一视同仁地享有其中规定的权利和自由;还回顾了《经济、社会、文化权利国际公约》、《公民权利和政治权利国际公约》以及《消除一切形式种族歧视国际公约》,
Recalling the Durban Declaration in which the World Conference against Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerance, recognized that xenophobia against non-nationals, particularly migrants, refugees and asylum-seekers, constitutes one of the main sources of contemporary racism and that human rights violations against members of such groups occur widely in the context of discriminatory, xenophobic and racist practices,回顾了《德班宣言》、反对种族主义、种族歧视、仇外心理和相关的不容忍现象世界会议在其中确认对非国民、尤其是移民、难民和寻求庇护者的仇视是当代种族主义的主要来源之一,在存在歧视性、仇外性和种族主义惯例的情况下,广泛发生着侵犯这些群体成员人权的行为。
Noting that, based on the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination and general recommendations XI and XX, it has become evident from the examination of the reports of States parties to the Convention that groups other than migrants, refugees and asylum-seekers are also of concern, including undocumented non-citizens and persons who cannot establish the nationality of the State on whose territory they live, even where such persons have lived all their lives on the same territory,注意到根据《消除一切形式种族主义国际公约》及第十一号和第二十号一般性建议审查《公约》缔约国报告后,情况已经十分明显,除移民、难民和寻求庇护者之外的各种群体、包括无证非公民以及在缔约国境内即使居住终生也无法取得国籍的人,处境也令人关切,
Having organized a thematic discussion on the issue of discrimination against non-citizens and received the contributions of members of the Committee and States parties, as well as contributions from experts of other United Nations organs and specialized agencies and from non-governmental organizations,举办了关于歧视非公民问题的专题讨论,委员会委员和缔约国、联合国其它机构和专门机构的专家以及非政府组织都对会议有所贡献,
Recognizing the need to clarify the responsibilities of States parties to the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination with regard to non-citizens,承认必须澄清《消除一切形式种族歧视国际公约》缔约国对非公民的责任,
Basing its action on the provisions of the Convention, in particular article 5, which requires States parties to prohibit and eliminate discrimination based on race, colour, descent, and national or ethnic origin in the enjoyment by all persons of civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights and freedoms,根据《公约》的规定、尤其是第五条规定采取行动,要求缔约国在人人享有公民、政治、经济、社会和文化权利及自由方面禁止并消除基于种族、肤色、世系或民族或人种的歧视,

Article 1, paragraph 2, must be construed so as to avoid undermining the basic prohibition of discrimination; hence, it should not be interpreted to detract in any way from the rights and freedoms recognized and enunciated in particular in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights;2. 对第一条第二款所作的解释必须能避免破坏根本禁止种族歧视的工作;因此,所作的解释绝不应该偏离《世界人权宣言》、《经济、社会、文化权利国际公约》以及《公民权利和政治权利国际公约》确认和阐明的各项权利和自由;
