about the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons. There is talk also of
the
global development strategy. Is it in the interest of the world that, in
all
these fields and in so many others, the solutions arrived at should not
be
really universal, and that the great nation of China should not
participate in
their alaboration and adoption?
My delegation therefore is in favour of the draft resolution submitted
by eleven Powers in document A/1.531. That draft resolution has the
merit of reflecting reality and of seeking to ensure greater efficiency
for our Organization. The question involved here, as we have already
stated, is only a question of presentation and verification of
credentials. It is a procedural matter and, per se, it cannot be
considered as an important question within the meaning of Article 18 of
the United Nations Charter. Whether it concerns a big Power of a small
Pover, the nature of this question remains the same and, in all cases of
this kind, the voting procedure should be the same, namely, the
procedure of an absolute majority.

The draft resolution of the fifteen Fowers (A/L-532) matter, the two

on the possibility of exceptions provided in paragraph 3 of Article 18

therefore opposed to this draft résolution.
With respect to the five-Power draft (A/L.533), we received it this
morning and we have had no time to examine it, but in passing I might
say that we think that the matter is all too clear to need to be
referred to a special committee. Perhaps the "complex nature" of this
problem comes from its
clarity and self-evident nature.
The presence of the great nation of China in our Organization can
unquestionably bring to the United Nations a strength it needs and

HY. FOUNTAIN (United States of America): Once again, as for many years
past, the question of the representation of China in the United Nations
has been brought before the General Assembly, We of the United States
delegation, while disagreeing strongly with those who have raised this
question,
welcome the opportunity to state our position on it again.
In this statement I shall direct my resaris primarily to two proposal a
which now lie before the Assembly,
The first of these is the "important question" draft resolution of which
fifteen Members, including my country, are co-sponsors. By this draft
resolution the Assembly would affim again that the decision it took in
1961
remains valid that is, that any proposal to change the representation of
China is an important question within the meaning of Article 18 of the
Charter.
The United States vill vote in favour of this draft resolution.

The second proposal. I shall discuss is the draft resolution of which
eleven Herbere, led by Albania, are co-sponsors, This draft resolution
calle for the expulsion of the Republic of China from the United Nations
and the
It is essentially the same as those which the seating of Communist
China, Assembly has consistantly rejected in past year. It is totally
unacceptable to my Government and the United States will vote against
it,
Let us now set forth the considerations which continue to guide my
Goverment on these issues.
The "important question" draft resolution is co-sponsored by fourteen
MemberK: Australia, Belgium, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Gabon, Japan,
Madagascar, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Philippines, Thailand, Togo end the
United States.
This draft resolution begins by recalling the Assmbly's previous
recomendation that, whenever more than one authority claims to be the
government entitled to represent a Member State in the United Nations,
this quaation should be considered in the light of the purposes and
principles of
the Charter of the United Nations and the circumstances in each case.
The
draft resolution then recalls, and affine se rewaining valid, the
decision
of the Assembly in 1961 that any proposal to change the representation
of China is an important question within the seming of Article 18 of the
Charter.

wides that

"Decisions of the General Assembly on important questions shall be made
by a two-thirds majority of the Members present and voting."
My delegation's co-sponsorship of the "important question" draft
resolution,
now as in the past, staus from a profound conviction that any proposal
to change the representation of Chins in this Organization is a question
of political
importance of momentous political importance in fact and that such
proposal, consequently, can be decided only in conformity with the
two-thirds
Tula.
-
The previous history of the debates and votes on this matter clearly
demonstrates that this conviction is widely shared ** even by some vhose
attitude toward the Albanian draft resolution is dimetrically opposed to
ours.. Members whose views differ widely on the substance of the Chiness
representation
qusation are very much in accord in recognizing that ve are dealing here
with
a question which has the most serious implications for the rights and
privileges of membership; for the functioning of the United Nations; and
for the maintenance of international peace and security,
This can easily be grasped by any one of us, I think, if we imagine our
own countries subjected to such a challenge. Just suppose that any other
Member represented here, whether small or large, found its membership in
the United Nations called into question, What Member among us could
conceivably dismiss much a challenge as unimportant?
Surely, in this Organization of sovereign equals we cannot fail to
accord to another Member the treatsant which we would most certainly
claim for ourselves in a like situation.
This indisputable fact -- that any proposal to change the representation
of Chine raises an important question is the presise of the
fifteen-Power "important question" draft resolution. Proceeding from
that factual premise, our
draft resolution reaffires the Inescapable procedural conclusion under
Articla 18 of the Charter.
Let me remind the Assembly that the position taken in this "Important
question" draft resolution is not new, In 1961, the very first tims the

Assembly held a substantive debate on Chinese representation, it adopted
a resolution to the same effect, On two subsequent occasions, in 1965
and egain in 1966, the Assembly found that this decision of 1961 was
still valid.
Thus the importance of the Chinese representation question and the
consequent
two-thirds voting requirement has been affirmed or reaffirmed by the
General Assembly on three occasions. The present draft resolution simply
reaffima once again this vital procedural point,
As I stated at the outset, the United States will vota for the
"Important question" draft resolution. We hope that it will again be
adopted by a large majority. And let me stress to all Members including
particularly those who say differ with my country on the substance of
the
Chinese representation question that the issue raised by this draft
resolution is not a political issue but an issue of fidelity to the
procedure
laid down in the Charter, It asks only that whatever our respective
positions may be on the substance, our decision should be taken in

I turn now to the draft resolution submitted once again this year, as
for some
years past, by Albania and other co-sponsors. Like its predecessors,
this raf: resolution would expel the representatives of the Republic of
China and replace them with the representatives of Peking.
It is truly ironic that this proposal is put forward, year after year,
in the name of universality of membership. And yet, the immediate step
which the Albanian draft resolution proposes is a direct affront to the
idea of universality, namely, the summary expulsion of a Member of the
United Nations. However it may be disguised by tendentious words, that
is the clear intent. Under this draft resolution, the Republic of China
a founding Member of the United Nations, a Member in good standing whose
rights in this Organization are clear and against whose conduct as a
Member no serious complaint has ever been made would be thrown out bag
and baggage.
The sponsors of this proposal have referred to the Republic of China,
their intended victia, as a "byth". But the Republic of China, is far
being a myth; it is a very lively and highly impressive reality. Its
Goverment effectively governs some 13 million people, a population
exceeding that of most of the Members represented in this body. It has
achieved one of the highest standards of living in Asia. It is
recognized diplomatically by a majority of the membership of the United
Nations. And for twenty-two years it bas contributed faithfully to the
work of the United Nations, including the specialized agencies and other
constructive United Nations programmes. Tat this is the Member of the
United Nations which is nominated for expulsion. That is the penalty
which the Charter reserves for persistent violators of its principles.
It has never been imposed upon any Member in the entire history of this
Organisation. No wonder the Assembly has refused so many times in the
past years to take this step of expelling the Republic of China. Such a
step would be a flagrant injustice and an indelible blot of shame on the
record of the Uited Nations. It would violate the Charter which we are
all solemnly bound to uphold and which contains no grounds whatever for
such an arbitrary act of expulsion. Moreover, it would set an evil
precedent that might one day
be invoked against other Hambers here present even those perhaps who
today
may be inclined to support it.

(Mr. Fountain, United States)
For all these reasons, and in the interest of us all, the rights of the
Republic of China in the United Nations must be preservað.
On this ground
alone the Albanian draft resolution should be rejected. Indeed, any
delegation
that does not wish to expel the Republic of China has no choice but to
vote
against the Albanian draft resolution.
The other step which the Albanian draft resolution contemplates is the
seating of the representatives of Peking in the United Nations. In view
of this proposal, it seca proper that we should consider, first, the
conduct of the Paking régime in the light of the purposes and principles
of the Charter;
and, second, the declared attitude of Paking towards the United Nations
itself.
Ás regarda conduct, there cenot be any more widely known fact in
international affairs today then the warlika and, aggressive manner in
which
the Paking régine has conducted itself all around its pariphery from
Tibet to
Korea. If there is a political authority in the world today more hostile
to
International peace and security, more diametrically opposed to the
purposes and principles of the United Nations Charter, more contemptuous
of elementary diplomatic usage, ny Government does not know of it.
Of course, as might be expected, the sponsors of the Albanien draft
resolution have painted quite a different picture. It is a pleture which
bears little relation to reality and, let me add, some of the sponsora
know that fact from direct experience. I refer particularly to the
explanatory memorandum which they submitted on 8 September lest in
support of this agenda
item. Iat me quote a few of the assertions in that memorandum to see how
they compare with the facts.
Take, for example, the assertion that the Peking régime "has always
followed. a policy aimed at sattling by peaceful weans all disputer
which may exist or arise between independent Staten. (A/6831,
paragraph_4)
H
Can this
possibly be said of the régine that intervened masively in the
aggression against South Korea; that has repeatedly launched armad
attacks against Indian
territory along the Himalayan mountain borders; that has been deeply
involved
in the aggression against the Kingdom of Lacs and the Republic of
Viet-Nan; and
that has intervened to promote subversion as far may na Africa and Latin
America?
:

The behaviour of Commist China toward those independent States which
have
has been sought its friendship not just in Asia but in every region
aracterized time and time again by provocation and insult. Apparently,
to continue in the favour of Peking it is no longer mough to maintain a
friendly attitude. Nations whose friendship for Communist China is of
long standing and whose leadem in former yaara vere received in Peking
with much poup and circumstance now find themselves accused of serving
as "puppets of American
imperialism".
These
Physical attacks on diplomatic personnel and installations in Paking
have recently become widespread. Abuses of diplomatic privileges by
emissaries of Peking have created serious incidents in the capitals of
many countries. incidents have been front-page news all over the world
for many months. Even some of those who exert themselves amually to
plead Peking's cause in this assembly are not exempt from such
treatment. It is puzzling indeed how it cap be asserted, as the
explanatory memorandum asserts, that "the People's Republic of China has
always displayed full respect for the independence and dignity
of other countrie
(Ibid., para. 6) The burning of embassies, the physical besting of
diplomats, and the abuse of diplomatic immunity for propaganda and
subversion ara exceedingly strange ways of showing respect.
I would cite only one more statement from the memorandum subaltted in
behalf of Peking'a admission. This is the assertion that "no important
international problem can be solved without the participation of that
country." (Ibid., para. 7) This is a strange observation to make about a
régime which has long since made it clear that it is opposed to
international efforts to solve most of the major problems of the day,
including those of great concarn to the United Nations. For example,
Peking has taken the most extrame possible position on the troubles of
South-East Asia, including Viet Nam, in the apparent hope of preventing
a reasonable peace settlement in that are5. It has rejected out of hand
the partial nuclear test-ban treaty, the treaty on outer space and the
projected treaty to prevent the proliferation of nuclear weapons, and in
fact has shown itself generally hostile to the whole concept of arus
control.

In its deeds as in its words, Peking has remained faithful to Mio
Tse-tung's dogma that "all political power grows out of the barrel of a
gun". I leave
it to all of my fellow representatives to judge for themselves whether
the
presence in the United Nations of this rigidly fanatical and
violence-prone

problem.

(Mr. Fountain, United States
exphasize that the United States does not rejoice in Peking's hostility,
nor have we sought to provoke it. On the contrary, for more than
a decade my Government has made efforts in the diplomatic, azus control,
tehhnical, journalistic, humanitarian and other fields to find points of
common interest and co-operation, however modest, that night penetrate
that
solid wall of hostility and self-isolation which Peking has erected. Our
efforts thus far have been almost totally unavailing. Nonetheless, we do
not cease to hope for a better future. Only last week, on 15 November,
the President of the United States joined with the Prime Minister of
Japan in a communique which said:
"Looking forward toward an enduring peace in Asia they further expressed
the hope that Communist China would ultimately cast aside its present
intransigent attitude and seek to live in peace and prosper alongside
other nations in the international community."
But in all realim, such a change still seems ruote.
Against this background, I now turn to a more specific question and one
which is especially relevant to this debate, namely, the attitude of
Peking and the Peking régime towards the United Nations. There is
abundant evidence on this subject. Peking has made no secret of ita
utter contempt for this Organization. It does not seek to enter the
United Nations; rather, it arrogantly and blatantly proclains conditions
under which it would consent to join. As Prender Chou Pr-lad said as
recently as last 24 June: "The United Nations must correct all of its
mistakes of the past, and must be thoroughly reo-ganized and
transformed." And he went on to say: "If this
:
goal is not reached, then the possibility will increase that a new,
revolutionary United Nations vill be set up."
Such statements, in almost the same words, have been made by the
authorities in Peking numerous times in the past. In addition, those
authorities have given some details on what they mean by the
"transformation" that must take place and the so-called "mistakes" which
the United Nations aust correct before they will, consent to enter this
great body.

(Mr. Fountain, United States
For example, in a speech in Peking on 29 September 1965, Foreign
Minister
Chen Xi said that all the States which he classified as "imperialist
puppet States" should be driven out of the United Nations. And
similarily, in an interview with the Philippine Journalist J.V. Cruz on
9 May 1966,
the same Mr. Chen Yi was quoted as emphatically asserting that his
régize
"will never go into the United Nations, even if
invited by the Organization, wless and until certain conditions set
forth
by her will have been set first", Asong those conditions vare included,
and
again I quote from the interview, "expulsion of the Taiwan delegation,
and
a thorough-going revision of the United Nations Charter",
and I quote Mr. Cruz
As for the expulsion of the Republic of China, as we have seen, that
demand is far from Thew, Peking has made clear many times ite refusal to
sit
in the United Nations unless the Republic of China is first expelled,
And it is, of course, in obedience to that demand that the Albanian
draft resolution proposes precisely this step - a step of abject
surrender by the United Nations to a stipulation that is mommentally
unjust.
Let me again remind my fellow representatives that whatever their views
ay be for or against the seating of Peking, they cannot vote for the
Albanian draft resolution without thereby voting to expel the Republic
of China.
Consequently, any delegation which opposes such expulsion has only one
way, in my opinion, to give effect to its opposition, and that is to
vote against the
Albanian draft resolution.
In conclusion, I should like to say that the United States did not
raise this issue, but since it has been raised it must be faced. And in
order to face this issue, we must first recognize it for what it is. The
issue
raised is not the reconciliation of mainland China with the world,
That event lies outside our present control, for the key to it is a
change
of heart and a new spirit in Peking. Unpromising though the prospects
may
now appear, my country, together with many others, whole-heartedly hopes
for
such a change,
(Mr. Fountain, United States)
But the issue we face today is something altogether different. It is
vhether the United Nations should, on the peremptory demand of Peking,
commit
gross injustice against one of the founding Members and against its own
Charter. This is the road not to reconciliation with Communist China,
but to disaster for the United Nations. For the sake of the future of
thin
Organization and all for which it stands and all who stand for the cause
of peace and human dignity, let us again decisively refuse to follow
that road. And let us all individually and collectively hope and work
and pray for the day when a more constructive road may be open toward
enduring peace and security both in Asia and throughout the world.
Mr. BUDO (Albania) (interpretation from French): One of the direct
consequences of the imperialist policy of aggression and of vorld
begemony which is being feverishly pursued by the United States of
America has been to deprive the United Nations for eighteen years of the
assistance of the largest State in the world, the People's Republic of
China.
This is without question an unusual situation without precedent and very
odious, and at the same time it is one of the principal causes of the
long crisis which this Organization has suffered and which has reduced
it to its present state of abasement where it has become an instrument
incompatibla with the interests of the cause of freedon, peace and
progress.
American imperialism, possessed by the insane ambition to take over from
the former colonial Powers, which are now crumbling, and to create under
its negán a new world supire, is feverishly following an aggressive
policy, resorting to all possible means to stifle the revolutionary
fight for freedom of the peoples which is breaking out spontaneously in
the four comers of the world, and to place under ita rod of iron all the
countries
that resist the implementation of its global strategy for world

Imbued with the most reactionary conceptions and blinded by their

occupation by them of territories transformed into colonies and bases of

the provocations of the United States Seventh War Fleet and the

The height of the cynicim of the ruling circles of America is that, in
spite of this blindingly obvious reality, they scruple at nothing, as
was shown once again today by the United States representative in
accusing the great socialist China, an eminently peaceful country, of
this same aggressive policy which is their own, as though it were Ching
which had sent its fleet to positions off the American coast, occupied
parts of the territory of the United States, established pacts and a
whole series of military bases around that country and violated the
territorial integrity, or that bad attacked peaceful peoples and nations
and created hotbeds of war in various parts of the world. Truly the
ruling circles of America, as L result of carrying out their policy of
international banditry comprising interventions, aggressions,
monstrosities, threats, blackmail and deceit, have reached such a point
of aberration that they consider that all is permitted them and think
the world could easily lend itself to all their absurdities and
extravagances.
It might perhaps not be inappropriate to quote in this connexion
a typical and recent exemple. In his Fress conference of 1 November the
President of the United States, referring to the attack of 31 October by
the heroic Viet-Namese freedom fighters against the Saigon palace, where
the aggressor masters and the South Vist-Hanese puppet riff-raff þad
nasembled to feast, exclaimed that the attack "should revolt the
civilized world".
Thus, according to the logic of the American governing circles, when the
South Viet-Nanese patriots who are fighting for their national salvation
attack the Yankes invaders and their Saigon leckeys the civilized world
should be revolted, whereas it should applaud when the American
gangsters drop their bomba on the towns of North Viet-Hen, killing
women, children and the aged and destroying its people's work of
peaceful building, and when they ravage whole regions in South Viet-Nan
and perpetrate the most barbarous crises and nexx maskeres there. North
American ruling circles are therefore incapable of realizing that the
whole of mankind, all the progressive forces, feel towards them a
revulsion and a most deep-seated hatred, condemning most aergetically
their monstrous fashion of understanding international relations, and
stigmatizing then as onery No. 1 of
the peoples.
(Mr. Budo, Albania)
One of the characteristic features of the world scene in the last few
pars is the fact that this criminal policy of the ruling circles of the
Jnited States of America is more and more openly supported by the
revisionist clique of the Soviet Union, which has betrayed
Marzian-Leninism and the vital interests and profound aspirations of the
Soviet peoples and of all the peoples of the world. The Soviet
revisionists have točey become the maber one allies of American
imperialis for the implementation of its anti-Chinese policy and
the repression of the revolutionary national and social liberation
movements of
peoples. American imperialion and Soviet revisionism have today
established a
counter-revolutionary "holy alliance" designed to rally round it all the
reactionary and decadent forces of the world, Of course, that "holy
alliance" fa
the culmination of a series of common efforts of conspiracy on the part
of the two partners, whose principal points of reference could be
represented by what is commonly called "the spirit of Camp David" of
1959, "the spirit of Vienna" of 1961, "the Caribbean crisis" of 1962,
"the spirit of Moscov" of 1963, with the signing of the Treaty on
Nuclear Tests, and finally "the spirit of Glassboro" - of this
summer -- on the very morrow of the criminal imperialist-Israeli
aggression
against the Arab countries, for which the Soviet revisionist leaders
bear a heavy
responsibility which marks a new stage on the Soviet revisionist
cliquela road of betrayal and conspiracy with United States imperialim,
At Glassboro -- where Kosygin openly thrust himself into the arms of
Johnson,
in view of the whole world -- the two partners tried to embark, within
the context of global strategy, upon a general co-ordination in all
fields on
world scale and a sharing of zones of influence and hegemony in the
world. They concluded new deals on numerous problems and hatched new
plots against the peoples, against Viet-Nam, against the Near East and
the Middle Fast and other
countries, and in particular against the People's Republic of China --
plots
which constitute the common gement of collusion between Soviet
revisionies and
American Imperialim,
The Johnson-Kosygin plot also reflecta and this cannot be overlooked
the weakness of American imperialism and of Soviet revisionism, de wall
as the
panic that the Americans and Soviets feel before the flowering and the
constant
consolidation in all fields of great socialist Chine and before the
dynamic development of the revolutionary liberation movement of the

The victory of the great cultural proletarian revolution in China,
conducted
in accordance with the theory and the thought of the Chinese Communist

by the Chinese

high degree
the development and the power of the People's Republic of China, its
