UFOs, THE U.N. AND GA 33/426 - by John F. Schuessler
Late in 1978, prominent UFO researchers approached the
United Nations with the suggestion to set up some type of
international clearing house whereby investigators and
researchers would be able to coordinate on an international
level scientific research into unidentified flying objects,
and to inform the Secretary-General of the observations,
research, and evaluation of such activities. The UN General
Assembly responded favorably by adopting Decision GA 33/426.
Unfortunately, nothing was done to bring the decision to
fruition and it lies dormant to this very day.
Early in 1992 Mohammad Ahmad Ramadan, President of the
United Nations Parapsychology Society, suggested it was time
to reacquaint the United Nations with Decision GA 33/426
with the intent of forming the agency called for in the
Decision. In order to make this happen, he felt it
necessary to have a series of presentations aimed at
providing an update on the UFO situation. He then
proceeded, with the strong support of MUFON's Robert
Bletchman, to organize the United Nations Symposium on
Extraterrestrial Intelligence and Human Future which
occurred on October 2, 1992, just ten days before NASA was
to begin it's SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial
Intelligence) program.
The symposium was not aimed at traditional academia or the
media. It was felt that traditional academia has proved to
be insufficient in solving problems of this magnitude and
needs help itself in having credibility for the future. As
far as the media is concerned, it is saturated with UFO data
and all of those concerned have already made up their minds
- for or against. No UFO witness will make them change
their minds, unless they see for themselves. The mission of
the symposium, then was not to change people but to network
with those who already are willing to listen, especially
among the United Nations non-governmental organizations
(NGOs) such as Amnesty International, Red Cross, Greenpeace,
B'nai Brith, etc. The organizations are the greatest
catalyst of change in modern times.
For instance, they fought very hard to force President
Bush to attend the Earth Summit in Rio. It was noted that
the "old guards" of politics and science would be
apprehensive, fearful we were pulling the carpet from under
their feet. Therefore, the tone of the symposium was to
present the data and leave the audience to decide for
themselves, the way I believe it should always be done.
Hundreds of representatives of the United Nations NGOs meet
weekly to investigate problems having a worldwide scope.
Many of these representatives did attend the symposium and
responded favorably. The Dag Hammarskjold Auditorium was
filled to capacity.
We were fortunate in having Linda Howe available for a
special noon program prior to the symposium, but held in the
same auditorium. She provided a Crop Circle Mystery Update
in a special hour and a half program.
Symposium speakers were each given one hour to present their
message. After a brief introduction by Mr. Ramadan, Stanton
Friedman gave an energetic and entertaining presentation
entitled "The Cosmic Watergate." I followed with the
"Medical and Scientific Evidence." After a short break, the
program resumed with a presentation on "The Human Evidence,"
by Dr. Rauni Leena Kilde, MD. of Norway. Dr. Kilde
revealed her own personal abduction experience. The final
presenter was Dr. Norma Milanovich, speaking on the "Cosmic-
Spiritual Evidence and Experience," using material channeled
through her computer.
After a question and answer period by the panel of speakers,
an open letter to the Secretary-General, from the panel of
speakers, was read aloud to the audience. The letter was to
be hand delivered to the Secretary-General on the following
Monday.
The UFO mystery is not limited to the United States. It is
a worldwide problem. Therefore, it was appropriate to bring
this strong message to the United Nations, with the
expectation that the UN will proceed to form the UFO agency
called for by Decision GA 33/426. There is hope that it
will be done correctly this time.

AN OPEN LETTER TO THE UNITED NATIONS - October 2, 1992
In just ten days, the United States Government will initiate
an intensive search for intelligent life elsewhere in the
universe. The Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence
Program (SETI) will employ radio telescopes and computers
seeking to decipher signals from some other planet very much
like our own. It is based on the now widely-accepted
scientific premise that out of the billions of stars in our
galaxy, there is a mathematical probability that some may
have planets on which intelligent civilizations have
evolved.
And yet - if the evidence we have presented today as
scientists and researchers from several countries at the
Symposium on Extraterrestrial Intelligence and Human Future,
at the UN at the invitation of the Parapsychology Society of
the UNSRC, is to be taken seriously - there is every
indication that intelligent life forms already have made
contact with citizens of Planet Earth.
In other words, we are in the position of the man who is
unsuccessfully trying to contact his neighbor on the
telephone, because his neighbor is knocking at the door.
We support the search for extraterrestrial intelligence,
however we believe that the search can - and must - begin at
the UN. We are now faced with one of the most important
issues of the century: the scientific study of Unidentified
Flying Objects (UFOs). The resolution of this enigma will
affect the future of the majority of the inhabitants living
on this planet. The UFO problem touches the lives of many
nations and engenders puzzlement, fear, and - at times -
harm. Therefore, it is of significant scientific and
technological interest, and it carries with it many
implications of the existence of an intelligence other than
our own.
The evidence is both intriguing and challenging. Reports of
UFO activity describe incidents where the craft fly circles
around high performance jet aircraft, shut down
sophisticated electronic systems, black out electrical
power systems, stop automobiles, upset animals, damage
plants, and cause medical injuries to humans.
We now have the data to prove beyond the shadow of a doubt
that Unidentified Flying Objects are operating in our skies
on a regular and uninterrupted basis. The technology
demonstrated by the UFOs is futuristic, beyond the present
capability of human technology. Without warning, UFOs
appear and confuse the lives of humans throughout the world.
We as world citizens should no longer stand idly by and
allow this to continue without a serious and united effort
to address the issue.
Therefore, we urge the United Nations to implement its GA
33/426 of December 18, 1978, by establishing an agency of
the UN for undertaking, coordinating, and disseminating the
results of research into unidentified flying objects and
related phenomena (text enclosed). A small unit for the
purpose is a good start considering the present UN financial
situation.
When the first contact with an extraterrestrial intelligence
is openly made, the question will be asked: "Who speaks for
the citizens of Planet Earth?" and the answer must be, "We,
the United Nations."
Sincerely,
Dr. Norma Milanovich
Dr. Rauni-Luukanen-Kilde, MD.
Ms. Linda Moulton Howe
Mr. Stanton Friedman
Mr. John Schuessler
