British Labour leader Hugh Gaitskell urged limited recognition of East Germany and acceptance of the Oder Neisse border with Poland at the Socialist International congress in Rome. He advocated moving some UN agencies to West Berlin, condemned the Berlin Wall, and argued the Pankow regime does not reflect East German people.
