Sir Patrick DEAN S/PV.907 Sept. 28, 1960

I too, as a new boy myself, would like, if I may, to associate myself with the happy remarks which you, Mr. Presi- dent, made in welcoming to thfs table the representa- tive of Ecuador. On behalf of my delegation I should like to extend to him a very warm welcome and our best wishes and our hope tha…

Sir Patrick DEAN S/PV.899 Sept. 14, 1960

Mr. Presi- dent, as I understand it, the participation of .'n-mem- bers of this Council in our debates is gave:.. - L. by rule 37 of the provisional rules of procedure and, as I understand the position, it has never been the practice of the Security Council, as you yourselfhave just said, to allow n…

Sir Patrick DEAN S/PV.896 Sept. 10, 1960

A point of order, Mr. President. The hour is late and I under- stand that certain members of the Council whowish to 155.

Sir Patrick DEAN S/PV.897 Sept. 10, 1960

My dele- gation has given very careful thought to the request made for a postponement of the Council's proceed- ings until Monday, 12 September, to allow time for a representative of the Congo to be present. 10. In our view, it is clear from the Secretary- General's report [S/4482 and Add. I] and f…

Mr. Beeley S/PV.893 Sept. 8, 1960

Mr. President, when I read the letter addressed to you by the repre- sentative of the Soviet Union (S/4477] in which he asked you to convene a meetingofthe Secl,1I'ity Council immediately to endorse the decision of the Organiza- tion of American States with regard to the Dominican Republic, I was so…

Mr. Beeley S/PV.892 Aug. 16, 1960

I am very hap- py, in the name of my delegation, to associate myself with the tribute that you, Mr. President, have just paid to the representative of the United States. He has played so large a part in our work, not only here in the Security Council but in the General Assembly as well, that I think…

Mr. Beeley S/PV.892 Aug. 16, 1960

Sir Pierson DIXON S/PV.883 July 26, 1960

If the Council will bear with me, I should like to make two brief comments on certain points which Mr. Kuznetsov, the Deputy Foreign Minister of the Soviet Union, has just made about part of the argument in the statement I delivered on this item yesterday. 135. First, I might well have found myself…

Mr. Beeley S/PV.873 July 14, 1960

I have already explained in an earlier intervention the basis for the abstention of my delegation on the resolution which the Council has just adopt~d and I need not detain the Council for more than a moment. 240. I wish only to repeat that the abstentiOn of the United Kingdom delegation was due ex…

Mr. Beeley S/PV.873 July 14, 1960

While respecting the motives with which the representative of Tunisia has put forward his amendment to the suggestion be- 47. Le PRESIDENT (traduit de l'es-<,agnol) : Pour eviter que les membres du Conseil nes'engagentdans une longue discussion de procedure, je vais demander au Conseil s'il est dis…

Sir Patrick DEAN S/PV.913 July 13, 1960

I certainly do not want to start a long procedural debate at this time, but I would just like to say this: it seems to my delegation that the reasons for adjourningthis meeting until tomorrow afternoon were very well stated by the representative of Argentinaand I really have very little to add. 80.…

Sir Patrick DEAN S/PV.903 July 13, 1960

I toowould like to reply to some remarks whichthe representative of the Soviet Union saw fit to make in his last inter- vention about the United Kingdom Government's atti- tude towards the maintenance of law and order in the dependent territories for which it is still responsible. 101. He said, if …

Mr. Beeley S/PV.889 July 13, 1960

Therepresenta- tive of the Soviet Union is really very hard to please. When a previously dependent territoryhas obtainedits freedom and when the forces of the previous adminis- tering Power are being rapidly withdrawn, he des- cribes this process as "aggression". When the nationals of States ofwhose…

Another day of the calendar became designated as a national day when, on 30 June, the independent state which is today applying for membership in the United Nations as the Republic of the Congo came intobeing. We have heard this afternoon-especially from the representa- tive of Belgium-an informativ…

Sir Pierson DOWN S/PV.870 June 29, 1960

It is with real pleasure that we meet today to consider the application to join the United Nations from another of the newly independent African States. During the present year the applications of the Republic of Cameroun, the Togolese Republic and, only yester- day, the Federation of Mali, have alr…

I am very grateful to you, Mr. President, for the tribute you have paid to the late Sir Hersch Lauterpacht this afternoon, and I shall not fail to transmit it to Her Majesty's Government in the United Kingdom and also to the family of the late Judge. 11. la mllmoire de sir Hersch Lauterpacht et je …

We have met at the request of France and Tunisia to consider the application of the Republic of Togo for admission to membership in the United Nations. France and Tunisia jointly, and felicitously, have also sponsored the draft resolution before us, which recommends the admission of this newest of s…

Mr. Presi- dent, I am grateful for the opportunity you have given me to clarify one point arising from part of the state- ment by the Foreign Minister of the Soviet Union this morning [862nd meeting]. Mr. Gromyko suggestedthat the Government of the United Kingdom was in some way, as I understood him…

Sir Pierson DIXON S/PV.856 April 1, 1960

I stated in my intervention yesterday [853rd meeting], the attitude of Her Majesty's Government in the United Kingdom towards the general problem. I have nothing to add to what I then said. I made it plain in the course of that intervention that in our view there are limits within which the Council …
