Soviet Seeks U.N. Ban on Kasavubu Delegation in Congo
At the United Nations the Soviet Union urged the Security Council not to seat a Congolese delegation sent by President Kasavubu, arguing only a Lumumba-led group is lawful. The issue split the council as Bomboko and Kanza led rival camps, with Wadsworth proposing no invitations for either side for now. The session followed charges that Hammarskjold favored Lumumba and that Belgian forces remained in Congo despite U.N. efforts.
