United Nations Security Council Resolution 1110, adopted unanimously on May 28, 1997, after recalling resolutions 1082 (1996) and 1105 (1997), the Council renewed the mandate of the United Nations Preventive Deployment Force (UNPREDEP) in Macedonia until November 30, 1997.[1]

The UNPREDEP peacekeeping mission played an important role in promoting peace and stability in Macedonia. It also recalled Resolution 1101 (1997) over the rebellion in neighbouring Albania. Meanwhile, Macedonia's relations with Serbia and Montenegro had advanced significantly, and they had signed an agreement on the demarcation of their common border. Macedonia had requested that UNPREDEP's mandate be extended, and it was noted that stability in the region remained fragile, given developments in Albania.

The Security Council extended UNPREDEP's mandate until November 30, 1997 and authorised a reduction of the military component, beginning from October 1, 1997, of 300 personnel.[2] The Secretary-General Kofi Annan was requested to keep the Council informed on developments, reporting on the composition, deployment, strength and mandate of UNPREDEP, noting the parliamentary elections and situation in Albania by August 15, 1997. In this regard, the redeployment of UNPREDEP was welcomed.
