UN General Assembly
1961

"The King of Spain expressed his dissatisfaction at this injurious act of encroachment with more energy than appeared to accord with his sedate and reserved temper. 'Ambition and usurpation', he said, 'do not surprise me in the King of Prussia and the Tsarina; but from the Empress Queen I did not expect such perfidy.' Had the other Powers participated in these sentiments" —concludes Coxe— "Spain would doubtless have warmly espoused the cause of the Poles." 28. Berlin represents another iniquity, another partition of Poland at which, like Charles III, we protest. Heaven grant that it may not survive as long! But it will bring just as little good fortune—we may say without superstition—to those responsible for it. Similar and just as important in our eyes are those other injustices which, though less conspicuous, are of equal moral and juridical concern to us: I refer to the cases of Viet-Nam and Laos, countries at present being made the victims of sinister manoeuvres.
