Iran-Iraq War

United Nations Security Council Resolution 514, adopted unanimously on July 12, 1982, after recalling Resolution 479 (1980) and noting the mediation efforts by the Secretary-General, Organisation of the Islamic Conference and the Non-Aligned Movement, the Council expressed its deep concern at the prolonged conflict between Iran and Iraq.

Resolution 514 then called for a ceasefire between the two countries and a withdrawal by both to their internationally recognised border. It also asked the Secretary-General Javier Pérez de Cuéllar to continue with the mediation efforts and to report back to the Council on attempts to implement the resolution within three months.
