The United States remains publicly uncommitted. I am very apprehensive about the U.S. support of the Security Councils Middle East ceasefire resolution without any United States or Security Council commitment to resolve the basic underlying tensions in that troubled area. I believe we should insist on a resolution for United Nations peacekeeping action which will go to the heart of the Middle East unrest. which will end the state of war which has been asserted by the Arabs. as the excuse for closing the Suez Canal and the Straits of Tiran. resolve the plight of 600.000 restive Palestine refugees. and guarantee Israels borders and international rights. Any United Nations peacekeeping action must be such that it cannot be canceled unilaterally by any party. A truce which offers no solutions to the threats posed by Arab aggressions offers no hope for an enduring or meaningful peace.
