THE PARTIES TO THIS TREATY,
REAFFIRMING their faith in the purposes and principles of the
Charter of the United Nations and their desire to live in peace
with all peoples and all Governments, and desiring to strengthen
the fabric of peace in the Pacific Area,
NOTING that the United States already has arrangements pursuant to
which its armed forces are stationed in the Philippines, and has
armed forces and administrative responsibilities in the Ryukyus,
and upon the coming into force of the Japanese Peace Treaty may
also station armed forces in and about Japan to assist in the
preservation of peace and security in the Japan Area,
RECOGNIZING that Australia and New Zealand as members of the
British Commonwealth of Nations have military obligations outside
as well as within the Pacific Area,
DESIRING to declare publicly and formally their sense of unity, so
that no potential aggressor could be under the illusion that any of
them stand alone in the Pacific Area, and
DESIRING further to coordinate their efforts for collective defense
for the preservation of peace and security pending the development
of a more comprehensive system of regional security in the Pacific
Area,
THEREFORE DECLARE AND AGREE as follows:
Article I
The Parties undertake, as set forth in the Charter of the United
Nations, to settle any international disputes in which they may be
involved by peaceful means in such a manner that international
peace and security and justice are not endangered and to refrain in
their international relations from the threat or use of force in
any manner inconsistent with the purposes of the United
Nations.
