Resolution 660 (1990) was adopted August 2, 1990, by a vote of 14-0, Yemen abstaining; Resolution 661 (1990) was adopted August 6, 1990, by a vote of 13-0, Cuba and Yemen abstaining; Resolution 662 (1990) was adopted August 9, 1990, by a vote of 15-0; Resolution 664 (1990) was adopted August 18, 1990, by a vote of 15-0; Resolution 665 (1990) was adopted August 25, 1990, by a vote of 13-0, Cuba and Yemen abstaining; Resolution 666 (1990) was adopted September 13, 1990, by a vote of 13-2, Cuba and Yemen opposed; Resolution 667 (1990) was adopted September 16, 1990, by a vote of 15-0; Resolution 669 (1990) was adopted September 24, 1990, by a vote of 15-0; Resolution 670 (1990) was adopted September 25, 1990, by a vote of 14-1, Cuba opposed. [Resolution 661, which calls for economic sanctions, requests the Secretary-General to report to the Security Council and its Committee (composed of all members of the Security Council) on that resolution's implementation. It also requests states to provide information concerning the effective implementation of those sanctions. The Secretary-General noted in his report of September 6, 1990 (S/21715) that 140 replies had been received from 106 countries in compliance with this request. Nine states which face special economic problems in carrying out this resolution (Bulgaria, India, Jordan, Lebanon, Philippines, Romania, Sri Lanka, Tunisia, Yugoslavia) have requested consultations with the Security Council with regard to a solution to those problems. Sudan and Yemen have indicated their intention to consult in due course.]
