According to the official record of the meeting,[2] the meeting convoked at 9:55 pm and adjourned at 10:00 pm. The five-minute meeting exemplified the Security Council's working method,[3] in which the meeting serves only as a public announcement of a decision that has already been reached in secret in "informal consultations".[4] Although the United States is widely credited with initiating Resolution 1373,[citation needed] once adopted unanimously, the resolution became a common act of the Security Council, and therefore all its members at the time had ownership over it.
