Adopted by the Security Council at its 3189th meeting,
on 30 March 1993

 
The Security Council,

Reaffirming its resolution 743 (1992) and all subsequent resolutions
relating to the United Nations Protection Force (UNPROFOR),

Reaffirming in particular its commitment to ensure respect for the
sovereignty and territorial integrity of Croatia and of the other Republics

Having considered the report of the Secretary-General dated 25 March 1993
(S/25470 and Add.1),

Deeply concerned by the continuing violations by the parties and others
concerned of their cease-fire obligations,

Determining that the situation thus created continues to constitute a
threat to peace and security in the region,

Determined to ensure the security of UNPROFOR and its freedom of movement
for all its missions, and to these ends acting under Chapter VII of the
Charter of the United Nations,

1. Approves the report of the Secretary-General, in particular its
paragraph 5;

807 (1993);

or at any time at the request of the Secretary-General, UNPROFOR's mandate in
light of developments of the International Conference on the Former Yugoslavia
and the situation on the ground;

4. Decides, in this context, further to extend UNPROFOR's mandate for
an additional interim period terminating on 30 June 1993;

5. Supports the Co-Chairmen of the Steering Committee of the
International Conference on the Former Yugoslavia in their efforts to help to
define the future status of those territories comprising the United Nations
Protected Areas (UNPAs), which are integral parts of the territory of the
Republic of Croatia, and demands full respect for international humanitarian
law, and in particular the Geneva Conventions, in these Areas;

6. Requests the Secretary-General to report urgently to the Council on
how the United Nations Peace Plan for Croatia can be effectively implemented;

7. Decides to remain actively seized of the matter.
