The Acting Chairman of the United States Delegation at the United Nations General Assembly (Dulles) to the Secretary of State
Delga 1062. UKDel has now transmitted (re Delga 1027) GADel revised text1 draft SC resolution Kashmir based latest instructions London. This supersedes draft described Delga 1027 which was only working paper.
Subject outcome UNCIP negotiations we have agreed participate joint UK, US, Canadian informal discussions thereon December 6.
Draft differs from previous working paper in that “progressive implementation of proposals contained part II UNCIP resolution August 13” definitely recommended and section E revised to include request that GOI and GOP “signify to President SC their acceptance recommendations part A of resolution with least possible delay.”
We shall be guided in our discussion with UKDel by Department’s instructions (Gadel 670, December 3) but feel that proposed SC resolution should, with respect to plebiscite, take into account not only April 21 resolution but should give particular weight to recommendations which UNCIP will submit on the basis of its negotiations regarding plebiscite principles.
Repeated to London as 1424.
