Letter dated 26 July 2001 from the Permanent Representative of Lebanon to the United Nations addressed to the President of the Security Council

Letter, 26 July 2001, from Lebanon

Refers to Security Council resolutions 425 (1978) and 426 (1978) and asserts that the purpose of the mission of the UN Interim Force in Lebanon as specified in those resolutions is to assist the Government of Lebanon to extend its authority over its territory; states that it would be unacceptable to change that mission to an observer status and it recommends that this idea should be abandoned.
