UN General Assembly
1966

21. My President has instructed me to make it quite clear that it is both his unshakable personal belief and the firm view of the Government of Malawi that under no circumstances should any resolution before this Assembly be supported unless ways and means of carrying it into practical effect can be envisaged. This is a basic principle in which we believe and which we are not prepared to set aside, for it is our view that resolutions of this kind reflect no credit on anybody and in the long term can only detract from the dignity and authority of the United Nations as a whole.
