Resolution

Observations

The Security Council reaffirmed its support for the peace process between the two countries and the full implementation of the Algiers Agreement. It welcomed progress made at a meeting of the Eritrea-Ethiopia Boundary Commission (EEBC) in March 2006.

Acts

Resolution 1678 renewed the mandate of UNMEE until May 31, 2006, and again demanded that Ethiopia and Eritrea comply with Resolution 1640. [2] All states were called upon to provide contributions to the trust fund and support UNMEE.

Furthermore, Council members decided that, in the event of non-compliance with Resolution 1640, and in light of the outcome of the EEBC meeting on May 17, 2006, adjustments would be made to the mandate and troop level of UNMEE by the end of May 2006. [3]

Finally, the Secretary-General Kofi Annan was instructed to report on compliance with Resolution 1640 within seven days and to also provide suggestions on adjusting UNMEE's mandate to support the demarcation process.
