All facial images in Notices and Diffusions submitted by member countries are searched and stored in the facial recognition system, provided they meet the strict quality criteria needed for recognition. Participating member countries can also submit "search only" requests directly to the system, using the Biometric Hub, for example, to carry out a check on a person of interest at border crossings. The results are returned quickly to enable immediate follow-up action, and images are not recorded in the facial image database. 3, record 1, English, - facial%20image%20database

Todas las imágenes faciales contenidas en las notificaciones y difusiones que se publican a petición de los países miembros se consultan y almacenan en el sistema de reconocimiento facial, si cumplen los estrictos criterios de calidad necesarios para el reconocimiento. Los países miembros participantes también pueden solicitar que se realice una simple consulta en el sistema de reconocimiento facial, usando el Centro de Biometría, por ejemplo, para efectuar un control de personas de interés en un puesto fronterizo. En esos casos, los resultados se obtienen rápidamente para que se puedan tomar de inmediato las medidas necesarias. Las imágenes no quedan almacenadas en la base de datos de imágenes faciales. 1, record 1, Spanish, - base%20de%20datos%20de%20im%C3%A1genes%20faciales

Treaties of friendship. From the agreements so far published in the United Nations Treaty Series, the local citizenship of Commonwealth State has been given positive recognition as the predominant national status on the international plane. Following the partition of the Indian sub-continent ad the emergence of the States of Pakistan and India, separate Treaties of Friendship were concluded by each of these States in the name of their respective "citizens" or "nationals" with Iran, Turkey and Syria. [...] These bilateral treaties provided for the maintenance or establishment of diplomatic and consular relations "in conformity with", or "on the basis of", "international law and practice" between the Contracting Parties. While some of these treaties merely instituted a base for the subsequent negotiation and conclusion of agreements to establish reciprocal rights for the respective citizens of the two States, others made immediate provision guaranteeing rights and privileges to the citizens of one State in the territory of the other. 1, record 6, English, - treaty%20of%20friendship
