The agenda was adopted.
The situation in the Middle East
Report of the Secretary-General on the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (S/2001/714)
The President (spoke in Chinese): 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.
Members of the Council have before them the report of the Secretary-General on the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon, document S/2001/714. Members of the Council also have before them document S/2001/748, which contains the text of a draft resolution prepared in the course of the Council’s prior consultations.
I should like to draw the attention of the members of the Council to a letter dated 26 July 2001 from the Permanent Representative of Lebanon to the United Nations addressed to the President of the Security Council, document S/2001/734.
It is my understanding that the Security Council is ready to proceed to the vote on the draft resolution before it. If I hear no objection, I shall now put the draft resolution to the vote.
There being no objection, it is so decided.
A vote was taken by show of hands.
In favour:
Bangladesh, China, Colombia, France, Ireland, Jamaica, Mali, Mauritius, Norway, Russian Federation, Singapore, Tunisia, Ukraine, United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, United States of America
The President (spoke in Chinese): There were 15 votes in favour. The draft resolution has been adopted unanimously as resolution 1365 (2001).
The Security Council has thus concluded the present stage of its consideration of the item on its agenda. The Council will remain seized of the matter.
This has probably been the last meeting of the month. I should like to thank all the members of the Council for their support, cooperation and friendly spirit. I take this opportunity to thank the Secretary-General and the members of the Secretariat for their valuable help and assistance.
The meeting rose at 11.15 a.m.
