Adoption

United Nations Security Council resolution 750 was adopted unanimously on 10 April 1992.

Principles for Resolving the Cyprus Dispute

The resolution reaffirmed previous resolutions on the situation in Cyprus, declaring that the conflict must be resolved on the basis of a single sovereign state with one citizenship and a federal bi-communal system. This framework is as set out in resolutions 649 (1990) and 716 (1991), which call for a bi-zonal federation.

Requirements for Representatives

The Council called upon representatives from the Republic of Cyprus and Northern Cyprus to adhere to these principles, which must not include secession or union with another country. The resolution emphasized that any settlement must be based on the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the single state.

Endorsement of the "Set of Ideas"

Resolution 750 again endorsed the "package of ideas" (also referred to as the "Set of Ideas"), subject to further negotiations on outstanding issues, and urged cooperation with UN Secretary-General Boutros Boutros-Ghali in this regard.

High-Level Conference

The resolution highlighted the need for a high-level conference with leaders from both communities in Cyprus, as well as Greece and Turkey, to conclude an overall framework agreement.
