UN Debates seating Communist China at the United Nations
The General Assembly opens a decisive debate on China’s seat with the United States seeking to keep the Communists out and push the issue to a two thirds vote. The Soviet Union urges seating Beijing replacing Chiang Kai-shek’s Nationalists as the United States and allies press for substance over delay. Kuwait’s bid for UN membership is vetoed by the Soviet Union, widening rifts with the UAR. The assembly also advances a resolution against nuclear weapon spread and stockpiling, despite opposition from the US and NATO allies.
