The Council stressed the importance of continuing the peace process initiated by the Addis Ababa agreement, welcoming the efforts of the Organisation of African Unity (OAU), Arab League and the Organisation of the Islamic Conference. The international community would help the country achieve peace, but ultimately it was the Somali people who were responsible for the reconciliation and reconstruction of their country. Meanwhile, the improvement of the situation with United Nations Operation in Somalia II (UNOSOM II) was welcomed, particularly with the eradication of starvation, establishment of numerous district councils, opening of schools and the resumption of normal life for most Somali people.
