Molotov Flags Two Thirds Rule At Paris Peace Conference
Soviet Foreign Minister Molotov argued at the Paris peace conference that a two thirds majority, not a simple majority, is needed to approve draft treaties and urged democratic nations to unite against Fascist Spain. He warned that a simple majority could empower Western Europe and undermine the conference's authority while stressing the need to punish Germany's satellites and end Franco regime oppression in Spain.
