However. by means of the insistence of our Government and of others. the Soviet Union withdrew from that position. This treaty now permits Austria to become a full participating member of the United Nations. and also permits Austria to become a fullfledged member of any of the great international organizations now in being. or any which the days ahead may reveal. Furthermore. during the negotiation of this particular treaty. notably in the month of May of this year. there was some feeling that the Soviets would insist upon repatriation. so to speak. of some of the political refugees who had fled to Austria. in order to get away from Communist oppression. By standing our ground again. the Soviets gave in. so that no principle of humanity has in any way been sacrificed. There will be no forced repatriation.
