Resolution

Once again condemning the illicit flow of weapons to the Democratic Republic of the Congo and reiterating its concern over militia activity in its eastern provinces, the Security Council this afternoon extended the arms embargo on that country, due to expire today, for another 10 days.

By the unanimous adoption of resolution 1768 (2007), the Council specified that the mechanisms it had established over the past several years to monitor and enforce the embargo be extended for the same period.

Those mechanisms include a travel ban and an assets freeze on persons determined to have violated the embargo, and a group of experts mandated to monitor violations through information provided by the United Nations Organization Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (MONUC) and other means, and to recommend ways to strengthen the sanctions regime.[1]

gollark: Real programmers travel back in time to the start of the universe and alter its initial conditions such that a program they want is simply created later.
gollark: ```mrustc works by compiling assumed-valid rust code (i.e. without borrow checking) into a high-level assembly (currently using C, but LLVM/cretonne or even direct machine code could work) and getting an external code generator to turn that into optimised machine code. This works because the borrow checker doesn't have any impact on the generated code, just in checking that the code would be valid.```
gollark: Mostly designed to stop trusting trust attacks and allow porting, but it could work.
