LETTER DATED 26 AUGUST 1996 FROM THE SECRETARY-GENERAL
ADDRESSED TO THE PRESIDENT OF THE SECURITY COÄ¢¹½ÊÓÆµCIL
I have the honour to refer to the composition of the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµIFIL).
The Governments of Estonia and Norway have proposed to place an Estonian Company within the Norwegian infantry battalion in Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµIFIL for a period of six months beginning in November 1996. This deployment will be in the framework of the two States' cooperation in the field of peace-keeping.
Following the usual consultations, I propose that Estonia be added to the list of Member States providing troops to Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµIFIL for the above-mentioned period.
I should be grateful if you could bring this matter to the attention of the members of the Security Council.
(Signed) Boutros BOUTROS-GHALI
