15 The text of this draft preamble reads as follows:
“ The States Parties to this Convention,
“Recalling that, since the most ancient times, economic relations between peoples have given rise to the institution of consular missions,
“Conscious of the purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations concerning the sovereign equality of States, the maintenance of international peace and security and the development of friendly relations among nations,
“Considering it desirable to establish the essential rules governing relations between States in the matter of consular relations,
“Considering that in the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations dated 18 April 1961 it is stipulated (article 3) that nothing in that Convention shall be construed as preventing the performance of consular functions by a diplomatic mission,
“Convinced that an international convention on consular relations, privileges and immunities would contribute to the development of friendly relations among countries, irrespective of the diversity of their constitutional and social systems,
“Affirming that the rules of customary international law should continue to govern questions not expressly regulated by the provisions of this Convention,
“Have agreed as follows:”
