United Nations Security Council Resolution 71 was adopted on 27 July 1949. Asked by the General Assembly under what conditions Liechtenstein might become a party to the Statute of the International Court of Justice, the Council determined that should Liechtenstein accept the provisions of the Statute, accept all the obligations of a member of the United Nations under Article 94 of the Charter, undertake to contribute to the expenses of the Court and ratify the Statute, Liechtenstein would become a party to the Statute of the International Court of Justice.
The resolution was adopted with nine votes to none; the Ukrainian SSR and Soviet Union abstained from the vote.
