UN General Assembly
1965

"In the address which I was privileged to be allowed to make to the General Assembly at its nineteenth session, I referred to my country's attitude towards the problem of divided or disputed sovereignty over China, and on that occasion I said, to quote my own words: " Justice and fair play demand that the Government in Peking, presided over by Mao Tse-tung, be recognized as the legal and rightful Government of China. " I should like to go further. In my view, the Government in Peking — that is, the Government of Mao Tse-tung — should be recognized by the United Nations, by this Assembly, by the Security Council, as the legal government of China now.’ [1268th meeting, paras. 81 and 82.] "The People's Republic of China is still not a Member of the United Nations, and I know that the question of its membership will come under close debate during the present session of the General Assembly. I must therefore make clear my country's attitude towards this important issue.
