On 25 May 2016, the UN Security Council (UNSC) adopted Resolution 2288 (2016), which terminated, with immediate effect, the measures on arms, previously imposed by paragraph 2 of Resolution 1521 (2003) and modified by paragraphs 1 and 2 of Resolution 1683 (2006), by paragraph 1 (b) of Resolution 1731 (2006), by paragraphs 3, 4, 5 and 6 of Resolution 1903 (2009), by paragraph 3 of Resolution 1961 (2010), and by paragraph 2 (b) of Resolution 2128 (2013) and dissolved, with immediate effect, the Committee established by paragraph 21 of Resolution 1521 (2003) and the Panel of Experts established pursuant to paragraph 22 of Resolution 1521 (2003), and subsequently modified and extended, including in paragraphs 3 and 4 of Resolution 2237 (2015). The actions were taken because the Council determined that the ceasefire in Liberia is being fully respected and maintained, disarmament, demobilization, reintegration, repatriation and restructuring of the security sector have been completed, the provisions of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement are being fully implemented, and significant progress has been made in establishing and maintaining stability in Liberia and the subregion. |
