First of all, I asked to speak on a point of order in order to tell you what happened. I must state that I checked with Mr. Gazarian, who is an old hand here, and asked him whether the list of speakers was exhausted. He said there were one or two speakers, but not in explanation ofvote. I said, "Ple…
Sir, I had asked to take th~ floor to ~ntroduce a few oral amendments before the explanations ·,of vote. I think, Mr. President, that Mr. Buffum, who id sitting on your left-hand side, has apprised you of this. Any submission of amendments precedes expv.dUltions ofvote.
136. Now I do not consult wi…
I do not think the difficulty is insurmountable. I must refer to what my colleague from the United Kingdom mentioned in the General Committee: that if we were to indulge in intermi- nable debates in the General Assembly-he did not say that, but I am paraphrasing-we might just as well do away with th…
Thank you, Mr. President, for allowing me to say a few words. Now I wish to address our beloved Secretary-General. As I said and must repeat, we congratulate ourselves on the election of such an illustrious gentleman to a second five-year term. But, indeed, we commiserate with himon the heavy burden…
We are going to vote for the draft resolution because we realize that there is more awareness as a result of the efforts of the freedom- loving States Members of the United Nations to put the Palestine question in its own perspective, and we are heartened that the solution of this intractablequestio…
In view of what Mr. Herzog said at the previous meeting, I feel constrained to call the attention of the Assembly to the genesis of the Palestine question, as I have done time and again. As the hour is late, I shall be as brief as possible, but I hope that I shall be able 'to give the Assembly suffi…
We have just heard the statement of our colleague from Cyprus and have taken into.account all the points which he has adduced. I am sure that he will be good enough to allow me to state that, if the two parties-the Greek Cypriots and the Turkish Cypriots- were to continue in this manner there could …
I cast my vote on behalf of the country that I represent in favour of the Turkish motion, not for reasons of solidarity, but because I thought it was a reasonable request on the part of Turkey, particularly since the Turkish Cypriots are in the minority in Cyprus and,noblesse oblige, the majority, w…
You are right, Mr. President, when you say that my statement will be made tomorrow, but I could not accept something I could not cope with. I am an .old-tlmer here in this United Nations and I presume others will be confronted with the same difficulties. I asked this morning to see the draft resolut…
France relinquished a whole empire, and rightly. It did that in the best French
97. I gave this as background because, after all, some French factions-and perhaps a few people in the French Parliament-wish to consider Mayotte as a Department of France, forgetting that there is the Mediterranean and…
All right, enforce that rule, but you cannotdrawa hard and fastlinebetween what is substance and what is form and what is right of reply. I am coming to the right of reply and I have ample time to develop my thesis, but there are many newcomers here, and it is my duty not bo be formalist, but to let…
I can add practically nothing to what previous speakers have said about apart- heid in condemning South Africa for adopting a continuous policy of racial discrimination in consistent defiance of the United Nations Charter and the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Dis…
