United States Rules Out Negotiations With Korea
Washington refused to negotiate the Korean crisis until Communist invaders are driven from South Korea. The United States also opposed seating Communist China in the UN Security Council and said the issue cannot be considered until the Korean war ends. Officials noted Britain and India had urged Russia on possible mediation but Washington insisted the cease fire and withdrawal to the 38th parallel must come first. The U S would vote against placing the seating question on UN meeting agendas and said it will not veto the Chinese Reds seating. President Truman had ordered American air and naval forces to Korea before UN request, underscoring a UN security effort led by the United States.
