Committee 1 (339th Meeting)1
summary
The joint US-Australia-Mexico-Pakistan-Philippines resolution on “Promotion of the Stability of International Relations in the Far East” (A/C.1/552) was presented by Jessup in Committee 1 Nov. 28. In his accompanying statement, Jessup suggested referral to the ICJ of the question of violations of the Sino-Soviet Treaty.
Australia, Greece, Venezuela and Belgium also spoke, the last-named taking a strong position and reserving judgment as between the two resolutions. Tsiang (China) said the joint resolution covered the last point of his resolution, and insisted on a decision on the other three points. The Committee voted, on Brazil’s motion, to adjourn pending completion of the “essentials of peace” item in Plenary.
