Adoption and implementation
All articles were adopted by the Security Council with minimum hesitancy, with the exception of Article 10, which was deemed null in a 5-7 vote, and with Article 4, which was only partially accepted. Article 4b was adopted, while 4a and 4c were not, meaning that Timerian military forces and equipment could remain in Birat. However, due to the passage of Article 3, Timeria was prohibited from conducting military strikes in Birat. Article 10, which would have condemned the government of Estoca, was completely made null.
Upon its adoption, Security Council diplomats began working to determine what international government would host peace talks between the Meidan party and the PDA, with another debate opening about the source of peacekeeping forces.
