29. The Kashmir dispute brings out in sharp focus the urgent need to strengthen the United Nations procedures for the peaceful settlement of disputes in order to avert danger to international peace and security. The threat of veto which hangs over any action that the Security Cornell might propose to take in this direction renders the Council impotent to fulfil its commitments. Is it not time for the great Powers voluntarily to undertake to refrain from resorting to the practice of veto in matters falling within the purview of Chapter VI of our Charter, so that the high purposes of our Organization may not be frustrated?
