The President (interpretation from French): Members of the Council have before them document S/l996/803, which contains the text of a draft resolution prepared in the course of the Security Council's prior consultations. It is my understanding that the Council is ready to proceed to the vote on the draft resolution before it.

In favour: Botswana, Chile, China, Egypt, France, Germany, Guinea-Bissau, Honduras, Indonesia, Italy, Poland, Republic of Korea, Russian Federation, United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland Against: None Abstaining: United States of America The President (interpretation from French): The result of the voting is as follows: 14 in favour, none against and one abstention. The draft resolution has been adopted as resolution 1073 (1996). The Security Council has thus concluded the present stage of its consideration of the item on its agenda. The meeting rose at 9:40 pm.
