(Reservation made at the time of signature) The Delegation of Argentina has voted in favor of the Convention regarding Territorial Asylum, but makes express reservation in regard to Article VII, as it believes that the latter does not duly consider nor satisfactorily resolve the problem arising from the exercise, on the part of political asylees, of the right of freedom of expression of thought.

to Article III (three) wherein it refers to the surrender of persons persecuted for political reasons or offenses; because according to the provisions of our Political Constitution, we maintain that such surrender of persons persecuted for political reasons may never be carried out.

We affirm, likewise, that the term "internment" in Article IX means merely location at a distance from the border.

(Reservations made at the time of signature)

First: The Dominican Republic does not agree to the provisions contained in Article VII and those following with respect to the unilateral determination of the urgency by the State granting asylum; and
Second: The provisions of this Convention shall not be applicable, consequently, insofar as the Dominican Republic is concerned, to any controversies that may arise between the territorial State and the State granting asylum, that refer specifically to the absence of a serious situation or the non-existence of a true act of persecution against the asylee by the local authorities.

(Reservations made at the time of signature)

The Government of Uruguay makes a reservation to Article II, in the part that stipulates that the authority granting asylum, is, in no case, obligated to grant asylum nor to state its reasons for refusing it. It likewise makes a reservation
to that part of Article XV that stipulates: "the only
requisite being the presentation, through diplomatic channels, of a safe- conduct, duly countersigned and bearing a notation of his status as asylee by the diplomatic mission that granted asylum. En route, the asylee shall be considered under the
protection of the State granting asylum." Finally, it makes a reservation to the second paragraph of Article XX, since the Government of Uruguay understands that all persons have the right to asylum, whatever their sex, nationality, belief, or
religion.
