UN General Assembly
1964

At this point, I cannot refrain from bringing up a fundamental problem: that is, if we need the United Nations, if we want it to carry out its purposes and principles, then we must preserve and protect the dignity and integrity of the Charter. The United Nations was created to maintain international peace and security. It must have a consistent body of moral and legal principles which are applicable at all times and in all circumstances. It must have a definite and definable standard of right and wrong which cannot be compromised. Yet we cannot help feeling disappointed at the existence of certain situations in the Organization. 108.
