Using economic sanctions to get another country to do what you want. Kind of like the US blockade of Cuba. The link to the document doesn't work, but here's one that works for me.

Oh wow, this could be big right? I assume the real question is whether or not it will be enforced.

I don't think it's anything binding, just stating that it's indeed a human rights violation.

Yeah, it's just a resolution, the list of countries was what interested me, always the same opponents(, since we're also the main countries behind such measures).
