Description
The Security Council today decided to extend the mandate of the expert panel assisting the committee overseeing its sanctions against the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea until 30 April 2024.

Unanimously adopting resolution 2680 (2023) (to be issued as document S/RES/2680(2023)) under Chapter VII of the Charter of the United Nations, the 15-member organ decided that the mandate applies to measures imposed by its relevant resolutions adopted in 2016 and 2017 and overseen by the Security Council Committee established pursuant to resolution 1718 (2006).nbsp;

Underscoring that the Panel of Experts must carry out credible, fact-based, independent assessments, analysis and recommendations in an objective and impartial manner, the Council requested that the Panel provide the Committee with a planned work programme no later than 30 days after the Panel’s reappointment. nbsp;

Following the adoption, several delegates expressed appreciation for the unanimous mandate-extension of the Committee established pursuant to resolution 1718 (2006), while some voiced concern that their proposals had not been incorporated in the draft text.

The meeting began at 3:06 p.m. and ended at 3:18 p.m.
