EMS/12 WBV. 2939 57 Now we are faced with yet a further breach by Iraq of international law and of its international obligations. The Iraqi Government is refusing to *lupply food to the poorest and most vulnerable of the third-country nationals in Kuwait, the workers from a number of Asian countries. The Government of Iraq is boasting that it still has considerable supplies of basic foodstuffs: these third-country nationals are simply being singled out for discriminatory treatment. And these are people who have played an important part in the economy of Kuwait. Now they are being cynically and as pawns by the Iraqi Government, and that is contrary to Iraq's obligations under the fourth Geneva Convention. We should, of course, be in no doubt about Iraqi objectives. By provoking a human tragedy - to be blunt, by starving foreign nationals and in particular Asian workers on its own territory and in Kuwait - it is seeking to open a breach in the sanctions which this Council has imposed upon it. The resolution we have just adopted is designed to avoid such an outcome while at the same time meeting the real humanitarian needs of these innocent victims, as was clearly intended when the samtions were imposed. The Council is laying down guidelines to enable food’to be supplied when it can be objectively established that a humanitarian need exists. These guidelines will permit food to be brought without delay to the Indian and other na:ionals from Asian countries who are now suffering0 The Secretary-General has already drawn attention to their plight, and there is no need for a further report on their conditions. Iraq can sail immediately. But when it reaches its destination its cargo of food 
analysis: The text discusses the situation in Iraq and Kuwait, specifically the humanitarian crisis faced by third-country nationals, particularly Asian workers, who are being denied food supplies by the Iraqi Government. The Council is taking action to address this crisis and ensure that food aid reaches those in need. The text does not focus on economic development, natural resources, or environmental issues. It also does not mention agriculture, forestry, fishing, industry, transport, communication, health, education, employment, or culture. Science and technology are not relevant to the topic. Humanitarian aid and relief is the most fitting category, as the text is primarily concerned with providing assistance to those affected by the crisis.
