Mr. Farah
Now that draft resolution S/10465 has been adopted by 13 votes in favour, two abstentions and none against, I wish to make a brief statement on behalf of the sponsors in explanation of certain aspects of the resolution.

Mr. Tomeh
My delegation of course supports every solution agreeable to India and Pakistan, countries equally friendly to us, as I have had many occasions to state. Indeed, we are very happy that an amicable settlement, as reflected in the resolution we have just adopted, has been agreed upon by both. But on a point of principle, supported by bitter experience of which the whole world is aware, it was with …
Mr. Ludwiczak
In the course of the debates on the question of the Indo-Pakistan conflict heard in this Council for over two weeks now, my delegation has several times presented its position. We have been stressing the fundamental character in the conflict of the internal situation in East Pakistan and the urgent need of its political solution in accordance with the expressed wishes of the people as the only ri…
Mr. Nakagawa
It is a matter of great satisfaction that the Security Council was at last able to adopt draft resolution S/10465 today.
30. This resolution is the culmination of continued efforts made by the members of the Security Council, and every one of us contributed in one way or another to the formulation of this proposal. My particular tribute goes to Ambassador Farah of Somalia, who has done so much i…
Mr. Vinci
The Italian delegation has cast a positive vote on draft resolution S/10465, which was submitted tonight for the decision of the Council. In doing so my delegation is convinced that the Security COUnC& even if it was not able to take action long ago, as we had advocated when we had more time to try to prevent the tragic events that occurred since last summer and more recently, can still serve a u…
Mr. Qrtiz De Rozas
This is not to explain the vote of 1ny delegation since Argentina, together with the delegations of Burundi, Japan, Nicaragua, Sierra Leone and Somalia. iS a sponsor of the resolution which the Council has just adopted, Nor have I anything to add to the interpretation so eloquently given of this resolution by the representative of Somalia. The point of view of Argentina has been repeatedly stated…
Sir Colin CROWE
For the past two and a half weeks the Security Council has closely followed the course of events in the India-Pakistan subcontinent, with great concern and anxiety. At times we laboured literally night and day in efforts to bring to an end the hostilities with the agreement of all concerned, and to hasten the day when the work of reconstruction couId begin.
54. For the rest, it is now for the pa…
Mr. Terence
Today we have witnessed three concomitant events: first, the accession to the Presidency of the Pakistani Republic of His Excellency Mr. Bhutto, who a few days ago was among us. Secondly, a few hours ago, we agreed, here in the Security Council, on a new Secretary- General of the United Nations. Thirdly, we have just adopted a resolution which seems to remedy certain previous failures of the Secu…

Mr. Farah
The decision by the Council to adopt a resolution has come as a matter of great satisfaction to my delegation. The only unfortunate part about the whole process is that it did not come about earlier. But, as the representative of the.United Kingdom pointed out, we must not live by recrimination. We must be able to learn lessons from the past, and see that the next time we are faced with a situati…
Mr. Shahi
The fact that the Security Council has at long last adopted a resolution on the situation in the India-Pakistan subcontinent does not detract from the greater fact that the Co,uncil failed signally in dealing with that situation in accordance with the principles of the Charter of the United Nations.
99. Pakistan was subjected to open and unconcealed aggression: the Council failed to prevent it. …

Mr. Shah1
Although the hour is late, I feel it necessary to take the floor once again because the statement we have just heard from the Foreign Minister of India calls for a reply.
145. First, the Pakistan delegation emphatically rejects the contention of the Foreign Minister of India that Pakistan has no right to keep troops in so-called Bangla Desh. East Pakistan is an integral part of the territory of …
