The Security Council again stressed the need for a negotiated political solution to the conflicts in the former Yugoslavia, including the mutual recognition of states in the territory. It also noted that Eastern Slavonia, Baranja and Western Sirmium (known as Sector East) are integral parts of Croatia. Importance was attached to respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms in those areas.

The "Basic Agreement on the Region of Eastern Slavonia, Baranja and Western Sirmium" agreement signed on 12 November 1995 was welcomed and the request to establish a transitional authority and international force contained in the agreement was recognised.[1] All parties were urged to co-operate with each other and the United Nations Confidence Restoration Operation.
