Established in 1993 under UN Security Council resolution 846, UNOMUR was given the mandate to monitor the border between Uganda and Rwanda and verify that no military assistance-lethal weapons, ammunition and other material of possible military use-was being provided across this border. While the tragic turn of events in Rwanda in April 1994 prevented UNOMUR from fully implementing its mandate, the Observer Mission played a useful role as a confidence-building mechanism in the months following the conclusion of the Arusha Peace Agreement and during UNAMIR's initial efforts to defuse tensions between the Rwandese parties and to facilitate the implementation of that agreement.

Établie en 1993 en vertu de la résolution 846 du Conseil de sécurité, la MONUOR a reçu pour mandat de surveiller la frontière séparant l'Ouganda et le Rwanda et de veiller à ce qu'aucune aide militaire - armes meurtrières, munitions et autres matériels pouvant avoir un usage militaire - ne traverse cette frontière. Même si les tragiques événements survenus au Rwanda en avril 1994 ont empêché la MONUOR de remplir pleinement son mandat, la Mission d'observation a joué un rôle utile comme mécanisme d'instauration de la confiance dans les mois qui ont suivi la conclusion de l'Accord de paix d'Arusha et durant les efforts initiaux de la MINUAR en vue de désamorcer les tensions entre les parties rwandaises et de faciliter la mise en œuvre de l'accord.

After the signing of the Paris Agreements on 23 October 1991, UNTAC was established and replaced United Nations Advanced Mission in Cambodia(UNAMIC). The mission consisted of 7 distinct components : human rights, electoral, military, civil administration, civilian police, repatriation and rehabilitation. Although each component had specific roles, UNTAC' s main task was to hold a free and fair election in Cambodia and to give its people the tools to build a stable and peaceful future. On 4 November 1993, the Security Council noted that the goal of the Paris Agreements had been reached with the conclusion of the UNTAC' s mission.

À la suite de la signature des Accords de Paris, le 23 octobre 1991, l'APRONUC a été créée pour remplacer la Mission préparatoire des Nations Unies au Cambodge (MIPRENUC). La mission se composait de sept éléments distincts (droits de la personne, élections, aspect militaire, administration civile, police civile, rapatriement et réhabilitation). Chacun avait des rôles précis à remplir, mais l'APRONUC avait principalement pour tâche de veiller à ce qu'on procède à la tenue d'élections libres et honnêtes au Cambodge et de fournir à la population les outils nécessaires pour s'assurer un avenir de paix et de stabilité. Le 4 novembre 1993, le Conseil de sécurité a remarqué que, la mission de l'APRONUC terminée, le but des Accords de Paris avait été atteint.

In June 1998, Indonesia proposed a limited autonomy for East Timor within Indonesia. In light of this proposal, the talks made rapid progress and resulted in a set of agreements between Indonesia and Portugal, signed in New York on 5 May 1999. The two Governments entrusted the Secretary-General of the United Nations with organizing and conducting a popular consultation in order to ascertain whether the East Timorese people accepted or rejected a special autonomy for East Timor within the unitary Republic of Indonesia. To carry out the consultation, the Security Council established the United Nations Mission in East Timor(UNAMET) on June 1999. The 5 May agreements stipulated that, after the vote, UNAMET would oversee a transition period pending implementation of the decision of the East Timorese people.
