Headline Security Council Lifts Sanctions Imposed on Libya After Terrorist Bombings of Pan Am 103, Uta 772

Caption Description After several delays in recent weeks, the Security Council this morning lifted decade-long sanctions against Libya, which were imposed after that country failed to cooperate with investigations into terrorist acts against Pan Am flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, in 1988, and France's Union de transport aeriens (UTA) flight 772 over the Niger in 1989. After postponing action on the issue last Tuesday in an effort to achieve consensus, the Council adopted resolution 1506 today with a vote of 13 in favour with two abstentions (France, United States). The decision became possible after Libya accepted responsibility for the actions of its officials, renounced terrorism and arranged for payment of appropriate compensation for the families of victims.
