He said that resolution 186 (1964), which had initially set up the United Nations Peacekeeping Force in Cyprus (UNFICYP), "following the Greek Cypriot armed offensive against the Turkish Cypriots", had not been accepted by the Turkish Cypriot side or by Turkey. That text, as well as the Council's subsequent decisions, referred to "the Government of Cyprus", which had, in fact, been representing only Greek Cypriots since 1963. Furthermore, UNFICYP should have functioned with the open consent of both sides.
