Adoption of the agenda
The agenda was adopted.
The situation between Eritrea and Ethiopia
The Security Council will now begin its consideration of the item on its agenda. The Council is meeting in accordance with the understanding reached in its prior consultations.
I should like to draw the attention of the members of the Council to document S/2005/723, containing the text of a letter dated 16 November 2005 from the representative of Japan addressed to the President of the Security Council.
Members also have before them document S/2005/732, which contains the text of a draft resolution prepared in the course of the Council’s prior consultations.
It is my understanding that the Council is ready to proceed to the vote on the draft resolution before it. Unless I hear any objection, I shall now put the draft resolution to the vote.
There being no objection, it is so decided.
