1. Over 60 years ago.
2. Logic has little to do with your statement, unless it is of the ill variety.
3. It's a pretty straightforward definition. 
4. That's unsurprising, considering that most countries violate various human rights fairly regularly.

1.) You'll have to provide a source for that.

2.) I guess you've never heard of the "logical conclusion"? Your premise is that immigration is a human right, which means states should not be able to restrict it. If everyone wants to live in the best country possible, and there is no restriction on migration, then everyone will simply move to the perceived "best country." This isn't complicated.

3.) The UN's definition is that "nations, based on respect for the principle of equal rights and fair equality of opportunity, have the right to freely choose their sovereignty and international political status with no interference."

In case you need to know what sovereignty is: "The authority of a state to govern itself."

Border security and immigration law are components of sovereignty. Through self-determination, nations can freely choose their sovereignty. Therefore, immigration can be restricted under self-determination.

1) The UN.
2) Like I said, "logic" has little to do with your statement.
3) Thanks for providing that definition.  Looks like you glossed over "based on respect for the principle of equal rights and fair equality of opportunity".  Your 'whites-only country' is clearly incompatible to the definition you provided.  So, you can refer to 2) and then to 1). 

Case closed.
