Attlee Supports UN Korea Resolution Amid China Debate
London July 18 British Prime Minister Attlee told the House of Commons the government stands by its decision to back the United Nations resolution demanding a Communist withdrawal from Korea. Attlee’s first public remarks since Stalin’s views surfaced follow Nehru’s peace initiative. Officials note Britain’s stance aligns with the United States in seeking a settlement within the UN framework, while Russia’s UN participation remains uncertain and could veto actions on Korea.
