Original Note:
The Security Council may make legally binding decisions (Art 25 https://www.un.org/en/about-us/un-charter/chapter-5 and 41 https://www.un.org/en/about-us/un-charter/chapter-7 of the Charter). The operative verb of the resolution is ‘demands’ (https://www.jns.org/full-text-un-security-council-resolution-2728/). The US distinguishes ‘demands’ and decisions (https://www.securitycouncilreport.org/atf/cf/%7B65BFCF9B-6D27-4E9C-8CD3-CF6E4FF96FF9%7D/s_2020_822.pdf, B.1). Some demands have been been judged decisions (https://www.ejiltalk.org/legal-bindingness-of-security-council-resolutions-generally-and-resolution-2334-on-the-israeli-settlements-in-particular/; Wood and Sthoeger, 2022 https://www.cambridge.org/core/books/un-security-council-and-international-law/decisions-of-the-security-council/4D2CEDC0427721F515A9BD416CD9C277).
