在各国人民享有不可剥夺的自决权方面，工作也仍未完成。在21世纪，某些联合国会员国的非殖民化进程仍不彻底，原因是它们的部分领土被任意割占，例如马达加斯加的格洛里厄斯群岛——新胡安岛、欧罗巴岛和印度巴萨斯岛——的情况。
The same is true of the inalienable right of peoples to self-determination. In the 21st century, the decolonization process of some UN Member States remains incomplete, due to the arbitrary detachment of part of their territory, such as the case of Madagascar with its Glorioso Islands — Juan de Nova, Europa and Bassas da India.
