After approving the phased deployment of 50 military observers, the intention of the Secretary-General Boutros Boutros-Ghali to send more observers in case the situation improved was noted. The Council would review the mandate of the United Nations Observer Mission in Georgia (UNOMIG) based on the progress of the negotiations. In this regard, the parties were urged to abide by their commitments in the memorandum of understanding and ceasefire agreement and ensure the safety of UNOMIG personnel, welcoming Russia's assistance in this area.
