The President
I shall now call upon representatives wishing to speak in explanation of vote after the vote.
I should like to put on record my delegation’s deep regret that our proceedings were interrupted by unfortunate disorder. I wish also to compliment our President, Ambassador McIntyre, on his patient efforts to maintain and restore order in the chamber. This wrangle was particularly regrettable because of the urgency of the issue before us. The issue is peace, and while we speak men are dying.

It was very late, last Sunday night and early Monday morning, when the Security Council had been convened for an extremely urgent meeting, on the 21st and 22nd of this month, that we were asked to adopt the joint Soviet-American draft resolution calling for an immediate cease-fire in place and for the immediate implementation of Security Council resolution 242 (1967). We have adopted that draft r…
When we accepted the ceasefire resolution we did so in trust, and therefore refrained from discussing its implications. We marked the hasty manner in which it was conceived, we marked the hasty manner in which it was presented to us, we marked OUI rejection, as loyal members of this Organization and as a non-aligned country of any concept of condominium that reduces this Council to a rubber stamp…
My delegation voted in favour of the draft resolution which the Council has just adopted since it was clear to us that ‘fitrther action was urgently required to back up resolution 338 (1973), adopted by this Council ycstcrday. While we welcome the fact that both Egypt and Israel have accepted the call to end the fighting, the cease-fire is clearly not yet fully effective; in certain areas fightin…
Two days ago we were asked to vote on a draft resolution practically without being given time to study it properly. Because my delegation did not want the fighting in the Middle East to continue one second longer than necessary, we voted for the draft resolution, although with some apprehensions as many questions remained unanswered in our mind with regard to the implementation of its provisions.…
On the morning of 22 October when we adopted resolution 338 (1973) I commented on the circumstances and the procedure we were obliged to follow. I do not consider it necessary or useful to repeat those comments. However, when we adopted that resolution we had assumed-it seems wrongly-that all parties to the conflict had agreed in advance to respect the cease-fire if it were decided upon by the Se…
The Soviet representative, Mr. Malik, just now made a lengthy statement slandering the Chinese delegation. However, his statement has completely ignored facts and is filled with lies. I should like to cite a few facts which everyone here has seen. Who delayed the proceedings of the Council? This morning the Chinese delegation arrived in the Security Council chamber on time, as notified by the Pre…
The President
The Secretary-General has asked to make a statement, and I now give him the floor.
149. The SECRETARY-GENERA],: Yesterday, I submitted to the Security Council, in document S/7930/ Add.2210, a summary of the current status of the United Nations Truce Supervision Organization (UNTSO) as of 1200 hours GMT on 22 October 1973. As I stated in this report, pending a further directive from the Security …
The President
I now call on the representative of J%yP-
145. The Chinese people adhere to principles. We are not afraid of your slanders. We shall definitely not allow YOU to establish any kind of super-Power condominium in the Security Council. Mr. Malik said that the Chinese delegation had obstructed the realization of the cease-fire. YOU are making a mockey of the common sense of the representatives around…
I should like first to thank our colleague Ambassador Sen of India for having had the courtesy to offer to let me speak before him. I had thought that I could put forward some remarks-brief remarks, as always-which would perhaps be of some benefit to the Council. Of course I could have spoken at the beginning of the meeting, but, because of my great respect for human lives, I thought it would be …
The President
I now invite the representative of Saudi Arabia to take a place at the Council table and to make a statement.
179. You have a monopoly on democracy, have you? That democracy is by subscription and contribution, and I want to tell you how it is by subscription and contribution. A few years ago an American friend went to an Arab ambassador to Washington and said, “YOU people do not know what the p…
Mr. President, thank you for finally calling upon me. I now speak by the grace of God and my very good friend Sir Laurence McIntyre.
180. The First World War was fought to save the world for democracy, not to preserve the empires against the imperialistic incursions of the Germans of the Kaiser. But the motivation was to save the world for democracy, and after the First World War there was less …
I must appeal that this forum which is being watched now by millions of people-
It is a shame and a disgrace that no one interrupts the representative who is speaking here-
