France accuses Russia of aiding Korea in UN gridlock
At Lake Success on August 14 France charged that Russia is aiding Communist North Korea by blocking UN Security Council action. French delegate Jean Chauvel accused Jacob Malik of isolating the United States through propaganda and noted Malik's dual role as a council president and Soviet spokesman. India proposed a blueprint by the Little Six to end the war and draft a postwar Korean government, urging a formal resolution if supported, while Rau urged a deadline for a study of ending the fighting under the June 25 resolution. Pravda meanwhile alleged a new U S aggression aimed via MacArthur and Harriman movements.
