Expresses the hope that the passivity which the European Union has once again demonstrated in relation to this episode will serve to encourage the establishment of an effective CFSP in the context of the current review of the Treaties;7. Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, the governments of Sierra Leone and Nigeria, the Economic Community of West African States, the OAU and UN Secretaries-General and the Co- Presidents of the ACP-EU Joint Assembly.
