| 73/198. United Nations Convention on International Settlement Agreements Resulting from Mediation | | 73／198．联合国关于调解所产生的国际和解协议公约 |
| The General Assembly, | | 大会， |
| Recalling its resolution 2205 (XXI) of 17 December 1966, by which it established the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law with a mandate to further the progressive harmonization and unification of the law of international trade and in that respect to bear in mind the interests of all peoples, in particular those of developing countries, in the extensive development of international trade, | | 回顾其1966年12月17日第2205(XXI)号决议设立联合国国际贸易法委员会，其任务是促进国际贸易法的逐渐协调和统一，并在这方面念及各国人民，尤其是发展中国家人民在国际贸易广泛发展中的利益， |
| Recalling also its resolution 57/18 of 19 November 2002, in which it noted the adoption by the Commission of the Model Law on International Commercial Conciliation1 and expressed the con- viction that the Model Law, together with the Conciliation Rules of the Commission2 recommended in its resolution 35/52 of 4 Decem- ber 1980, contributes significantly to the establishment of a harmo- nized legal framework for the fair and efficient settlement of disputes arising in international commercial relations, | | 又回顾其2002年11月19日第57／18号决议注意到，委员会通过了《国际商事调解示范法》，1并表示深信《示范法》以及大会1980年12月4日第35／52号决议所建议使用的委员会《调解规则》2大大有助于建立用于公平和高效解决国际商事关系中产生的争议的统一法律框架， |
| Recognizing the value of mediation as a method of amicably settling disputes arising in the context of international commercial relations, | | 认识到调解作为一种友好解决国际商业关系中产生的争议的方法所具有的价值， |
| Convinced that the adoption of a convention on international settlement agreements resulting from mediation that is acceptable to States with different legal, social and economic systems would complement the existing legal framework on international mediation and contribute to the development of harmonious international economic relations, | | 深信通过一部可为法律、社会和经济制度不同的国家接受的关于调解所产生的国际和解协议的公约将补充现行国际调解法律框架，并将有助于发展和谐 的国际经济关系， |
| Noting that the decision of the Commission to concurrently prepare a convention on international settlement agreements resulting from mediation and an amendment to the Model Law on International Commercial Conciliation was intended to accommodate the different levels of experience with mediation in different jurisdictions and to provide States with consistent standards on the cross-border enforcement of international settlement agreements resulting from mediation, without creating any expectation that interested States may adopt either instrument,3 | | 注意到委员会决定并行拟订一部关于调解所产生的国际和解协议的公约和《国际商事调解示范法》修正本，其目的是顾及不同司法管辖区在调解方面的经验参差不齐并为各国提供关于跨境执行调解所产生的国际和解协议的一致标准，同时不对有关国家将通过其中一项文书确立任何预期，3 |
| Noting with satisfaction that the preparation of the draft conven- tion was the subject of due deliberation and that the draft convention benefited from consultations with Governments as well as intergov- ernmental and non-governmental organizations, | | 满意地注意到委员会就拟订公约草案进行了适当审议，而且公约草案受益于与各国政府以及有关政府间组织和非政府组织的协商， |
| Taking note of the decision of the Commission at its fifty-first session to submit the draft convention to the General Assembly for its consideration,4 | | 表示注意到委员会第五十一届会议决定将公约草案提交大会审议，4 |
| Taking note with satisfaction of the draft convention approved by the Commission,5 | | 表示满意地注意到委员会核准的公约草案，5 |
| Expressing its appreciation to the Government of Singapore for its offer to host a signing ceremony for the Convention in Singapore, | | 表示赞赏新加坡政府主动提出在新加坡主办《公约》签署仪式， |

| 4. Calls upon those Governments and regional economic integration organizations that wish to strengthen the legal framework on international dispute settlement to consider becoming a party to the Convention. | | 4．促请希望加强国际争议和解法律框架的各国政府和区域经济一体化组织考虑成为《公约》当事方。 |
