Why?

The Paris Agreement (Pariser Abkommen) of 1946 guaranteed protective rights to the people of South Tyrol and made Austria their protecting power. The Package (Südtirol-Paket) of 1969 brought extended autonomy; after it had been put into practice, Austria made its declaration settling the dispute in 1992. South Tyrol is, however, still part of Italy.
