Speeches following this vote (20)
Mr. Massot
My delegation is very much in favour of the main thrust and the social purposes of the draft resolution entitled "International campaign against traffic in drugs" and consequently joined in the·consensus when it was adopted by the Third Committee and by the Assembly.

Mr. Fwrin
There is no doubt that the pressent situation in the Middle East is extremely dangerous. At the present time there are no signs that tension is easing or that the peace-threatening tendencies are lessening. The hopes which have been voiced many times by certain parties, that tension has been lowered and that lasting peace may be established, have proved unfounded. A number of facts point to the p…
Mr. Abulhassan
It is the universal view of the international community that, because of the nature of its political dimensions, its economic repercussions and its negative effects on the entire spectrum of international relations, the Middle East crisis is the severest and most intense crisis in the world. It has developed and become so complex that it has become the focal point of confrontation the consequence…
Mr. CORREA da COSTA
As we are only too aware, the fundamental principles of the United Nations have been repeatedly transgressed this year .in the Middle East. Israel has insisted on pursuing h strategy of pre-emptive attacks, posing new and serious threats· to
99. Realistically, if the parties directly involved are truly convinced that they must face the challenge of finding a compromise that has any possibility o…
Mr. RAcz
The Middle East crisis is no nearer a solution today than when this body dealt with the same problem a year ago. That area continues to be ravaged by tension and strife, posing a threat to world peace and international security. This threat has become even more obvious and direct as a consequence of the events of the past year in that troubled part of the world. Tension in that region has been in…
Mr. Al-Mosfir
I should like at the outset to express the anger of my delegation over the latest step taken by the United States of Americ~ in extraditing ,m Arab citizen, a national of an Arab sovereign State, to a third party, Israel, without basing itself on established fact, as stated' by the representative of Kuwait, in spite of the promises made by United States ambassadors to offidais in many Arab countr…
Mr. El-Solh
It is an honour for me to speak on behalf of Lebanon m the debate on the situation in the Middle East and to express our thanks to the Secretariat and to the international Organization as a whole for their efforts to solve the crisis in the Middle East. The area has become a hotbed of tension and an arena for the struggle between Powers, small and large, which threatens international peace and se…
Mr. Sulaiman
For more than three decades the United Nations has been dealing with the Middle East situation, at times in the Security Council, and year after year in the Assembly. Numerous appropriate and suitable resolutions have been adopted in that regard, but they have yet to be implemented.
147. Today, as the Middle East crisis deteriorates and becomes more serious, it constitutes a constant threat to i…
Mr. Marinescu
This debate on the situation in the Middle East has again highlighted the legitimate desire of peoples to see resolute action taken to do away with focal points of tension, to maintain their freedom and independence and to guarantee and strengthen international peace and security. At the same time, the debate reflects the deep disquiet caused by the persistence of conflicts and war in various par…
Mr. Sheldov
The General Assembly is again considering the situation in the Middle East, which continues to be one of the hottest and constantly bleeding regions of our planet. All the decisions of the General Assembly and the Security Council aimed at settling the problem of the Middle East and ending aggressive actions by Israel are cynically being flouted by the Tel Aviv authorities and remain unimplemente…
Mr. Tsvetkov
The crisis in the Middle East has been a cause of concern to the international community for some time now, since that region is one of the most sensitive centres in the world. The situation there, brought about by Israel's acts of aggression, continues to poison the international climate and defy efforts to make it healthier. The complex and conflicting interests of the various countries and the…
Mr. Piracha
The General Assembly considers the conflict in the Middle East year after year, for that conflict constitutes the greatest danger to regional and international peace and security. And yet, year after year we find that the situation has deteriorated still further. As correctly described by the Secretary-General in his annual report on the work of the Organization, "The situation in the Middle East…
Mr. Wyzner
This is not the first time that the General Assembly has been faced with the dangerou~ trends in the development of the situation in the Middle East. Its grave implications for international peace and security have been unequivocally underlined in this Hall many times throughout the years. The overwhelming majority of statements have reflected a genuine, deep concern and sincere efforts to reduce…
