United Nations Security Council Resolution 1939, adopted unanimously on September 15, 2010, after recalling previous resolutions on the situation in Nepal, including Resolution 1921 (2010), the Council extended the mandate of the United Nations Mission in Nepal (UNMIN) until January 15, 2011 amid concern over rising political tensions in the country.[1]
The extension of UNMIN would be the seventh and last.[2] In his report, the Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said he was not in favour of repeated extensions of the mission due to "persistent and unfounded criticism" that impaired its ability to carry out its mandate, in accordance with Resolution 1740 (2007).[3]
