UNTCOK

UNTCOK, the United Nations Temporary Commission on Korea, 1947-1948, was a body which oversaw elections in May,1948. The commission initially consisted of 9 nations of which Australia, Canada and Syria played a dissenting role, resisting US plans to hold separate elections in southern Korea. Such a position was in line with Korean moderates Kim Ku and Kim Kyu-sik.

In Soviet-controlled North Korea, the body was not even recognized with the Soviets arguing that the commission would break earlier agreements known as the Moscow Accords. The Soviets also argued that it violated Articles 32 and 107 of the UN Charter. Article 32 requires that both sides of the dispute be consulted, but Korean representatives from North and South Korea were never invited to address the UN. Also, Article 107 denied jurisdiction to the UN over post-war settlement issues.
