Affirms that the fulfillment of Charter principles requires the
establishment of a just and lasting peace in the Middle East which should
include the application of both the following principles:

Withdrawal of Israeli armed forces from territories occupied in the recent
conflict;
Termination of all claims or states of belligerency and respect for and
acknowledgement of the sovereignty, territorial integrity and political
independence of every State in the area and their right to live in peace
within secure and recognized boundaries free from threats or acts of force;

Affirms further the necessity

For guaranteeing freedom of navigation through international waterways in
the area;
For achieving a just settlement of the refugee problem;
For guaranteeing the territorial inviolability and political independence
of every State in the area, through measures including the establishment of
demilitarized zones;

Requests the Secretary General to designate a Special Representative to
proceed to the Middle East to establish and maintain contacts with the
States concerned in order to promote agreement and assist efforts to
achieve a peaceful and accepted settlement in accordance with the
provisions and principles in this resolution;

Requests the Secretary-General to report to the Security Council on the
progress of the efforts of the Special Representative as soon as possible.

Israel has agreed that 242 should be the basis of peace decades ago.  The
Palestinians are still opposed to it.
