notes with satisfaction the signing of the truce agreement by both
parties and the acceptance by both parties of certain principles
as an agreed basis for the conclusion of a political settlement on

for the assistance they have given the two parties in their

their offer of continued Good Offices in the working out of a
political settlement and maintains its offer of Good Offices
