Breakdown in Korea arms curbs spurs call for strong inspections
Washington officials said the breakdown of arms import curbs in Korea underscores the need for an iron clad inspection system in any global disarmament plan. They blamed North Korea and its allies for violations of the armistice, urging the withdrawal of Neutral Nations Supervisory Commission members to a neutral zone within a week to halt operations in South Korea. The move could affect Poland and Czechoslovakia, while Sweden and Switzerland side with the United States and South Korea that Red violations have rendered the commission ineffective.
