In my pre- vious statement to the Security Council [765th meet- ing, paras. 2 to 19], I confined myself very largely to one aspect of the Kashmir problem, the question of the action taken by the Constituent Assembly in Srinagar. I did, however, emphasize with what deep concern and anxiety the United…
In view of What my colleague from India has said, I must make it clear that all I appealed to him to do was not to read out the textual account of these private conversations. I did not suggest that he should make no allusion to them, because my colleague from Pakistanhas already
accept~ cette prop…
I think that I may have spoken of three members of the Common- wealth; of course, I meant four.
53. Mr. Krishna MENON (India): I do not intend to take seriously Sir Pierson Dixon's forgetting one member, the sub-conscious mind projecting itself. I am prepared to leave it at that.
54. I must say th…
I am sorry to interrupt the representative of India, but I should like to make this brief observation.
47. Of course, I fully recognize that, since the repre- sentative of Pakistan has made an allusion to the dis- cussions among the Commonwealth Prime Ministers, the representative of India naturall…
As I under- stand him, the representative of India is asking that these documents shall be circulated as United Nations documents. It seems to me that that is perfectly proper.
33. The PRESIDEN'l. .i. think the representative of India wants them included as part of his statement.

While it certainly would be premature at this stage to embark upon the substance of the grave and delicate problem before us, the point which has ariseninconneXion with the adjournment is one which does just touch upon the substance but which I think can nevertheless be properly raised, and should b…
l think this is rather a difficult point. My own opinion is-and this is the opinion of rnv coUeagues from AustraHa and the United States-that it is very desir- able to hear what the representative of the Soviet Union has to say. 113. Many questions have been put ta the represen- tative of the Soviet…
Having on two rect;nt occasions made it abundantly clear that my Govern.."11ent hopes that the Uni·..:d Nations will be ahle to help the Hungarian pp • achieve their natural aspirations, 1 do not WlSil cO make a long statement today, but 1 think that it may he of help to the Council to hear the repo…
The new draft resolution whîch has been placed before us as a result of the initiative of the representative of the Soviet Union, and amended by the representative of China, is an interesting one. We are aIl animated by a desire to do what we can in this Council to make our contribution. 1 hope the …
1 take it that the list of speakers is closed, and that we are now, cOkltrary ta my hopes, coming to a vote on the draft resolution. It is on that assumption that 1 should like briefly to explain my vote in advance.
181. It will be clear to the Couneil that, for the reasons 1 have already given, 1 …
Sorne divergence of view seems to be developing in the Couneil, and sinee 1 believe that the objectives are in fact very generally shared and since 1 think that it is obviously of the greatest importance that diver- gencies should be reduced as much as possible, 1 venture to intervene again. It may …
The situation which faces the Council in the Middle East is exceedingly grave. To place recent events in their proper perspective, 1cannot do better than quote from the statement ta which 1 referred this morning which was made earlier today in the House of Commons by the British Prime Minister. The …
When I heard the representative of the Soviet Union ask for the Aoor again, I hoped that he was going to address himself to the grave question before us. But Mr. Sobolev did not address himself either to the subject under discussion or to the statements that have been made. This, of course, is not t…
Before I explain the reasons why my Government has joined the Governments of France and the ‘United States of America in requesting an urgent meeting of the Council to consider the situation in Hungary, the Council may wish to hear, as a supplement to what the representa-

After the Council has adopted its agenda, I shall have more to say about the reasons which have led my Government to join with the Governments of France and the United States in requesting an urgent meeting of the Security Council. At this procedural stage of the discussion, I
shoulcl like to confi…
It is a matter of very grave concern to my Governrr.~nt that the Security Council should once again have to be dealing with the situation along the border between Israel and Jordan. Earlier this year, on 4 April, the Couneil unanimously passed a resolution in which the Secretary-General of the Unite…
The position as 1 see it is as foIlows. We have before us a letter [Sj3609] from the representatives of thirteen countries saying: "... our respective Governments deem it e~sential that the Algerian question should be considered by the Security Couneil without de1ay." That letter was dated 13 June 1…
1 should like, if 1 may, to say what a pleasure it is to me to see a member of the Commonwealth in ~e seat of the President of the Security Council. The represen-

The Security Council is meeting to consider the report of the Secretary-General (8/3596] on the results of the survey which he undertook pursuant to the Council's resolution cf 4 April 1956. The Council has rightly taken time to study this important document. We have been able in the interval to mak…
