UN General Assembly
1963

22. The Prime Minister of Laos informed us here that there has been no progress whatsoever towards the unity of his country as envisaged in the 1962 Agreement, so much so that its very independence as guaranteed in the 1954 Agreement has been jeopardized. He ascribed this sad state of affairs to continued infiltration and subversion by foreign elements. The International Control Commission has proved to be ineffectual because of the obstructionist policy followed by one member, while the Co-Chairmen of the Geneva Conferences have not been able to accomplish anything beyond addressing a pious appeal to all concerned to observe the letter and spirit of the Geneva agreements.
