When was the Honiara Declaration signed?

The Honiara Declaration was signed on the 23 January 1991, between PNG and Bougainville. The agreement sought to annul the unilateral declaration of independence of the BRA, restore services cut off by the blockade of Bougainville, introduce a Multinational Supervisory Team (MST) to supervise the truce, disarm the BRA and offer an amnesty to the BRA. Although initially accepted, the declaration was rejected within hours of its signing by BRA delegates who would not accept the condition of arms disposal. This turnaround and the rejection of relief supplies on 19 February were indicative of a leadership dispute within the BRA.
