What is a UN non

This type of resolution is often used to express the body's approval or disapproval of something that they cannot otherwise vote on, due to the matter being handled by another jurisdiction, or being protected by a constitution.

Are UN documents legally binding?

Although the declaration is not legally binding, its influence on national constitutions, treaties or international laws since 1948 cannot be denied.

Why have resolutions of the UN General Assembly if they are not legally binding?
