United Nations Security Council resolution 1372, adopted on 28 September 2001, after recalling resolutions 1044 (1996), 1054 (1996) and 1070 (1996) concerning the assassination attempt on Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak at an Organisation of African Unity (OAU) summit in the Ethiopian capital Addis Ababa on 26 June 1995 and subsequent measures, the Council noted compliance by Sudan and terminated sanctions against the country.[1]
Acting under Chapter VII of the United Nations Charter, the Council lifted sanctions imposed in previous Security Council resolutions against Sudan.[3] The sanctions were largely symbolic and few countries complied in their implementation.[4] The resolution was adopted by 14 votes to none against, and one abstention from the United States. While the United States' representative approved of Sudan's compliance, it stated that suspects in the assassination attempt had not been turned over to the appropriate authorities.[2]
