The council observed further progress in the implementation of the peace agreement between the government of Tajikistan and the United Tajik Opposition (UTO), and the ceasefire was respected. The security situation remained precarious and there violence in the centre of the country, though other parts remained quiet.

The two parties in Tajikistan had made progress with regards to Commission on National Reconciliation, exchange of prisoners of war, the registration of UTO fights in Tajikistan, the repatriation of refugees to Afghanistan and the formation of a joint security unit to protect UNMOT personnel. All of these developments were welcomed by the council, which then expanded the UNMOT mandate to: [2] [3]

(a) co-operate in the election and referendum process;
(b) investigate report violations of the ceasefire;
(c) monitor the disarmament, demobilisation and reintegration of UTO troops;
(d) co-ordinate United Nations assistance to Tajikistan;
(e) maintain contacts with both parties, the Commonwealth of Independent States peacekeeping force and Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe.

The intention of the Secretary-General Kofi Annan to convene a donor conference to provide funds for the operations in Tajikistan was welcomed. He was finally asked to report within three months on the implementation of the current resolution.

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.
