The President
I shall now put to the vote the draft resolution [S/9311] as a whole.
A vote was taken by show of hands.

The President
The representative of the Soviet Union has asked for the floor in order to explain his vote after the vote.
Mr. President, the position of the Soviet Union on the question of Jerusalem has already been set forth in full in the Soviet delegation’s statement on 1 July (1483rd meeting]. The Soviet Union has considered and continues to consider that IsraeI must immediately cease its illegal action and arbitrary conduct in Jerusalem; it must withdraw its armed forces from all the occupied territories, inclu…
The President
The representative of the United States has asked to speak in explanation of his vote, and I now call on him.
The United States voted for the resolution just adopted by the Council because it is consonant with our position on Jerusalem as described in my statement to the Council on 1 July [1483rd meeting].
203. In the separate vote taken on paragraph 5, the United States abstained because the language of that paragraph, by describing the actions which Israel has .taken as measures “which may tend to cha…
Mr. President, the Security Council’s deliberations on Jordan’s complaint against Jerusalem’s integrity, happiness and prosperity have come to an end. The representatives of Jordan and other Arab countries have turned this debate into a bacchanalia of belligerence and abuse. It was venemous; it will remain futile.
208. Could this have been illustrated more clearly than in today’s appearances by …
After the adoption of the Security Council resolution on the attack against Lebanon last December, Mr. Tekoah disqualified the Council. He said the Council was not qualified to make such a decision, because the Couficil was bankrupt. He then disqualified religious leaders and secular leaders and many others. During this debate he disqualified almost every single member who spoke on the question. …
The President
The next speaker on my list is the representative of Sudan. I invite him to take a place at the Council table, and I call on him to speak.
The representative of Israel was absent from this chamber while the representative of Morocco was speaking this afternoon, at least towards the end of his speech, That is probably why he is so full of pride that he could take on all comers. Instead of being full of pride, I think the representative of Israel should pause and reflect a little on the resolution that has just been adopted by the Sec…
It is already midnight and we are entering into the Fourth of July holiday, The resolution just adopted unanimously states the following in paragraph 6:
“Requests Israel to inform the Security Council without any further delay of its intentions with regard to the implementation of the provisions of the present resolution.”
We have heard a partial answer from the representative of Israel, but gr…
The representative of Israel has again referred to Pakistan in abusive terms. He has certainly been true to form. It is amusing that he quotes Indian charges against Pakistan. I recall that last year he did not spare India when India supported a Security Council resolution not to his liking.
236. At the conclusion of a fruitful debate, I feel that there are better things for me to do than to eng…
The President
I now invite the representative of Saudi Arabia, the last speaker on my list, to take a place at the Council table, and I call on him to speak.
Allow me, first of all, to extend my whole-hearted congratulations, it being the Fourth of July, to my colleague, Ambassador Yost, and to the Government of the United States and the American people on the occasion of their national holiday. That is why I shall be very brief. Since there will be no fireworks at night, they should perhaps celebrate tomorrow with their children and grandchildren and…
The President
I see that the representative of the United Kingdom wishes to speak, and I now call on him.
244. Lord CARADON (United Kingdom): Before we disperse, I would merely say that I, with many others I am sure, greatly regret that we have had to listen to so much bitterness tonight, and I would not wish to add to it in any way, But reference has recently been made to the illomened date of the Fourth of …
