Contents

There was concern about the deteriorating situation in Tajikistan, and the Security Council emphasised the need for the parties concerned to uphold their agreements. The situation would only be resolved through political means between the Government of Tajikistan and the United Tajik Opposition and it was their primary responsibility to do so. The resolution also stressed the unacceptability of hostile acts on the border with Afghanistan and was satisfied at co-operation between UNMOT, the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) peacekeeping force, Russian border forces and the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe.

The Council condemned violations of the ceasefire, particularly the opposition offensive in the Gharm region. [2] All parties were urged to comply with the Tehran Agreement and other agreements they had entered into and that the ceasefire would last during the inter-Tajik discussions. It also condemned terrorist attacks and other violence which resulted in the deaths of civilians, members of the CIS peacekeepers and Russian border guards. Death threats against UNMOT and its mistreatment were also severely condemned.

The mandate of the UNMOT monitoring mission was extended until 15 March 1997 on the condition that the parties to the Tehran Agreement demonstrated their commitment to national reconciliation. By 15 January 1997, the Secretary-General was requested to report to the council on the outcome of the talks. There was also concern over the worsening humanitarian situation in Tajikistan, and for the urgent need of the international community to respond, including voluntary contributions to Resolution 968 (1994).

The United Nations Mission of Observers in Tajikistan (UNMOT) was a peacekeeping mission established by the United Nations Security Council in December 1994 and extended on several occasions until its mandate expired in May 2000. Its purpose was to monitor peace agreements during and after the Tajikistan Civil War. The observers were first deployed in the wake of the ceasefire, in 1994, between the ruling government of Tajikistan, led by Emomali Rahmonov, and the United Tajik Opposition. After the UN-sponsored armistice ended the war in 1997, the UN expanded the mission's original mandate to monitor the peace and demobilization. The mission was headquartered in Dushanbe, Tajikistan.
