United Nations Security Council resolution 1130, adopted unanimously on 29 September 1997, after reaffirming Resolution 696 (1991) and all subsequent resolutions on Angola, particularly Resolution 1127 (1997), the council, acting under Chapter VII of the United Nations Charter, suspended the enactment of travel restrictions against UNITA until 00:01 EST on 30 October 1997.[1]

The council stressed that UNITA comply with the provisions in Resolution 1127, noting that further non-compliance would leave the council to consider the imposition of additional measures against it.[2] UNITA was required to demilitarise its troops, complete the transformation of its radio station Vorgan into a non-partisan broadcasting station, and extend the authority of the state to the areas controlled by it.
