U N Debate Repeats Stalemate Over Red China Seat
At the United Nations General Assembly the plan to send the China question to a study group gains a near 50-50 chance of approval. Delegates expect a two-thirds vote on representation to fail again, keeping Peking’s status in limbo through the year amid Soviet and Western divisions. The Italian proposal for a yearlong study is viewed as a long-range path to seating both regimes, though most major powers resist. The United States backs the Italian idea to avoid immediate commitment, citing Indonesia and internal Red China issues as factors.
