The Security Council reaffirmed that the Arusha Peace and Reconciliation Agreement remained as a basis for a settlement of the conflict in Burundi and welcomed mediation efforts by the former South African President Nelson Mandela and the United Nations. [2] There was concern at the ongoing violence in the country and its consequences on the situation in Burundi and regional instability.

The resolution, initiated by Jamaica and Mauritius, [3] supported the future installation of a transitional government on 1 November 2001. Armed groups, including the Forces pour la Défense de la Démocratie (FDD) and Forces Nationales de Libération (FNL) were urged to end hostilities and attacks against the civilian population and enter into negotiations as part of the peace process. [4]

The Council supported the establishment of a temporary multinational security presence in the country to protect returning political leaders and train a Burundian protection force, asking the Burundian government to keep the Council informed in this regard. The peacekeeping mission would be the first time South Africa had participated in such an operation. [5] It expressed willingness to consider further contributions to the peace process and urged the international community to provide assistance.
