France Tests U.N. Stand on Algeria and U.S. Support
France aims to test its friendship with the United States in a United Nations debate on Algeria. Premier Guy Mollet and Foreign Minister Christian Pineau seek Western backing as the anti colonial bloc presses for independence for Algeria. The United States stance is crucial, with France warning that a vote against Paris would strain ties further. Algeria, part of France, covers 847 500 square miles in North Africa and has about 8.3 million Muslims and 12 million French residents.
