Aviso n. 38/2008

Por ordem superior se torna público ter a República Portuguesa efectuado, junto do Secretário -Geral das Naçóes Unidas, em 31 de Agosto de 2005, uma objecçáo à declaraçáo formulada pela República Árabe do Egipto no momento da adesáo à Convençáo Internacional para a Eliminaçáo do Financiamento do Terrorismo, adoptada em Nova Iorque em 9 de Dezembro de 1999.

However, this objection shall not preclude the entry into force of the Convention between Portugal and the Arab Republic of Egypt.
