United Nations Security Council Resolution 939

**United Nations Security Council Resolution 939**

**Adopted on:** 29 July 1994

**Recalling all relevant resolutions on Cyprus**, the United Nations Security Council discussed the implementation of confidence-building measures as part of a wider process to settle the Cyprus dispute.

**Background**
The situation in Cyprus has been a longstanding issue, with various attempts at resolution. The Council reaffirmed that the current status quo was unacceptable, noting the United Nations position that there should be a single Cyprus consisting of two politically equal communities in a bi-communal and bi-zonal federation, excluding any union with another state or secession.

**Decision**
The Council decided to reapprove all decisions regarding the situation in Cyprus and to solve the dispute on the island. In this decision, the Council discussed the process of peace surrounding the Cyprus issue and the implementation of trust-enhancing measures. The decision was considered zero to 14, with Ruanda not participating in the meeting.

**Implementation**
The Secretary-General Boutros Boutros-Ghali was requested to begin consultations with members of the Security Council, guarantor states, and leaders of the Republic of Cyprus and Northern Cyprus regarding ways to address the Cyprus issue in a manner leading to results. All parties were urged to cooperate with the Secretary-General. A report was requested by October 31, 1994, related to a program for achieving a comprehensive solution to the conflict.
