From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

United Nations Security Council Resolution 82, adopted on June 25, 1950, recalling General Assembly Resolution 293, which found the Government of the Republic of Korea to be the lawfully established government over the area that the United Nations Temporary Commission on Korea found to constitute Korea. The Council noted with grave concern the attack on the South by North Korea. The Council determined that this action constituted a breach of the peace and called for the immediate cessation of hostilities. The Council further called upon North Korea to withdraw their armed forces to the 38th parallel. The Council then requested the United Nations Commission on Korea to communicate its recommendations on the situation, observe the withdrawal of North Korean forces from the 38th parallel and to keep the Council informed on the execution of this resolution.
