My Foreign Minister made it clear in his statement that he did not want to be drawn into polemics with the representative of the United States. She came to the Hall, she threw her vindictiveness, and she is just about to leave, joined by the representative of the United Kingdom, whose country’s name…

1 recall what I said again and again at the thirty-fifth session of the Assembly [33rd meeting] to a representative of Iran when he talked hog- wash. I reminded him of what H. G. Wells said in his story "The Country of the Blind": "In the country of the blind the one-eyed man is king." I had expecte…
The representative of Iran, in speaking in exercise of his right of reply, sought to tell the General Assembly that my Foreign Ministe~s state- ment was based on fiction and that it bears no relation to the facts.
