UN General Assembly
1955

the32. Before proceeding with my statement, I would like to associate myself with the many sincere expressions of congratulation which were extended to our President, Mr. Maza, by the members of the General Assembly on his being elected unanimously to the high office of President. I am confident that he will discharge his duties in a most able and impartial manner. 33. My thoughts at this moment are also with the President of our host country, the United States of America, whose present illness is a matter of grave concern not only to the people of this country but also to the world at large. My Government and people whole-heartedly endorse the expressions of concern and best wishes for a speedy recovery which the President of the General Assembly has sent to President Eisenhower on behalf of the United Nations.
