The General Assembly,
Regretting that resolutions must be repealed to be amended,
Concerned that Responsibility in Transferring Arms significantly impedes the ability of nations to wage just war, primarily by limiting the foreign arms a nation can receive if it is engaged in a war defined as a war of "conquest",
Arguing that war intended to halt blatant abuses of World Assembly prohibitions on genocide, slavery, and other human rights violations may still be considered conquest if the offending nation does not pose a persistent or existential threat, or has not taken territory from the attacking nation.
Arguing that war intended to uphold treaty obligations, as required by GA#2, such as defensive pacts, alliances, et cetera, may result in nations being compelled to engage in wars of conquest and thus prohibited from receiving foreign arms, if any allies they come to the aid of are being attacked by a nation that does not pose a threat to the first nation,
Believing that by acting on any armaments which have potential military use, the resolution reaches too far and restricts private civilian arms, such as sporting or personal defense weapons,
Distressed by the resolution's failure to prohibit aggressive member nations from receiving arms from non-member nations, allowing nations to buy arms from non-members to use in unjust wars, while still remaining in full compliance with General Assembly resolutions,
Also noting the negative impact on the arms industry, which is important to some nations,
Hereby Repeals GA#399 "Responsibility in Transferring Arms"
