Britain accuses Reds of trying to wreck UN
In New York, Britain charges Russia with using Belgium interference in the Congo to undermine the United Nations. Sir Patrick Dean, Pierre Millet, and Turgut Menemencoglu tell the Security Council they deem Moscow's Belgium charge unfounded. Zorin urged Belgium’s removal of Ruanda Urundi. Dean notes the criticism centers on colonialism and Belgium strikes, not the Congo incident. Dag Hammarskjold travels from Africa to join the debate and is expected to address the assembly.
