3. General Assembly

Miss Salt informed us that the Foreign Office has sent a telegram to UKUN requesting the Mission to work out with USUN the Chinese [Page 264] representation procedure for the Sixth GA. The highlights of this telegram were as follows: (a) the UK agreed to follow the moratorium procedure for the GA: (b) the Foreign Office thought that the procedural motion might “best be made at the opening session”: and (c) the UK preferred that the motion be purely procedural with no reference in the text to the February 1 resolution or continuing aggression.
