Report of the Secretary-General on his mission of good offices in Cyprus (S/1999/707)
The President
The Security Council will now begin its consideration of the item on its agenda. The Security Council is meeting in accordance with the understanding reached in its prior consultations.
Members of the Council have before them the report of the Secretary-General on the United Nations operation in Cyprus, documents S/1999/657 and S/1999/657/Add.1, and the report of the Secretary-General on his mission of good offices in Cyprus, document S/1999/707.
Members of the Council also have before them documents S/1999/724 and S/1999/725, which contain the texts of two draft resolutions prepared in the course of the Council's prior consultations.
It is my understanding that the Security Council is ready to proceed to the vote on the two draft resolutions before it. If I hear no objection, I shall put the draft resolutions to the vote now.
There being no objection, it is so decided.
I shall first put to the vote the draft resolution contained in document S/1999/724.
