text: # United Nations Security Council Resolution 1352
  
  United Nations Security Council resolution 1352, adopted unanimously on 1 June 2001, after recalling all previous resolutions on Iraq, including resolutions 986 (1995), 1284 (1999) and 1330 (2000) concerning the Oil-for-Food Programme, the Council extended provisions relating to the export of Iraqi petroleum or petroleum products in return for humanitarian aid until 3 July 2001.
  
  The Security Council was convinced of the need for a temporary measure to provide humanitarian assistance to the Iraqi people until the Iraqi government fulfilled the provisions of Resolution 687 (1991) and had distributed aid throughout the country equally. It also recalled the 1996 memorandum of understanding between the United Nations and the Iraqi government.
  
  Acting under Chapter VII of the United Nations Charter, the council extended the Oil-for-Food Programme and expressed its intention to consider new arrangements to improve the flow of commodities and products to Iraq (other than banned items) and the facilitation of civilian trade and economic co-operation with Iraq. The proposed arrangements would also improve measures to prevent the sale or supply of items prohibited by the council and revenue flows outside the escrow account established by the council.
  
  Finally, the resolution declared that the new provisions would be adopted for 190 days beginning 4 July 2001.
