Surprise Vote On Spain
Lake Success, May 7. The United Nations' Political Committee, by a vote of 25 to 16, today decided to leave mem- ber states full freedom of action in their diplomatic rela- tions with Spain.
པ་
Sixteen countries abstained. The voling showed that this motion, although passing the Poll- tical Committee, probably will not get the required two-thirds majority in the Assembly.
The Committee was voting on a resolution presented by Bolivia: Brazil, Colombin and Peru re- selnding the Assembly's 1946 de- cision to break off ambassadorial relations with Spain.
Since then a few Latin Ameri- can countries Ignorext the Assem- bly's ruling and maintained am- bassadors Madrid.
