Question of an appeal to the Powers signatories to the Moscow Declaration of I November 1943 for the enrly fulfilment of their pledges towards Austria The General Assembly, Recalling the terms of resolution 190 (III) of 3 No- vember 1948, whereby an appeal was made to the great Powers to renew their efforts to compose their di f- ferences and establish a lasting peace. Recalling the terms of the Moscow Declaration 5 of 1 November 1943, wherebv the Governments of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, the United King- dom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the United States of America recognized that Austria should be re-established as a free and independent State, Recalling further that the Government of France joined the three above-mentioned Governments in the said declaration as of 16 November 1943,6 Considerir.g that, in the spirit of the said declaration, the four Powers accepted the responsibility of re- establishing a free and independent Austria, and, to that end, have entered into negotiations towards the conclusion of an Austrian treaty, Noting with concern that those negotiations, which have been under way intermittently since 1947, have hitherto failed to bring about the proposed objective, Taking into account that such a state of affairs, still prevailing after a lapse of seven years since the libera- tion of Austria at the end of the Second World War, and arising from the inconclusive stage of the afore- mentioned negotiations, does constitute a source of deep disappointment for the Austrian people, who have by themselves made successful efforts towards the restoration and democratic reconstruction of their country, Recognizing that only through the unhampered ex- ercise by the Austrian people of their freedom and independence can these efforts attain full realization, Taking further into account that such a state of affairs hinders the full participation by Austria -in the normal and peaceful relations of the community of na- tions and the full exercise of the powers inherent in its sovereignty, s See United Nations Docu,nents, 1941-1945, Moscow Con- fertttce, Communique, NO'llember 1, 1943, Declaration 011 Austria, p. 15, Royal Institute of International Affairs, London and New York. 8 See Recueil de Te.-rtes a /'usage des Conftrences de la Paix, Premiere parlie, Documents glnirarix.
