Contributing sentiments towards policy:

46% : My study is looking at two main questions: whether states have the right to bar UN officials and the implications of doing this.
46% : If UN officials are suspected of engaging in conduct harmful to a country's national interests and security, it also has a right to defend and protect itself.
46% : Therefore, while countries do have the sovereign power to declare UN officials persona non grata, they need to exercise restraint in how they use this power.
43% : In recent years, Ethiopia, Mali, Sudan and Armenia have all declared UN officials to be persona non grata, just to name a few.
41% : Can UN officials be declared persona non grata? There is a longstanding debate between the UN and its member states about the legality of such declarations.
30% : And banning UN officials specifically could also seriously jeopardise the organisation's work and put innocent lives at risk.
