UN General Assembly
1956

138. We are especially pleased to see the creation i)f the United Nations Emergency Force under the auspices of the United Nations. Although the powers of that Force are limited, they possess considerable importance. Here we should like to pay tribute to the great accomplishment of the Canadian Minister of External Affairs and the tireless efforts of the Secretary-General, who in a very short time has succeeded in organizing, pursuant to the General Assembly’s resolutions, a force considerable detachments of which are already in Egypt and ready to carry out the duties assigned to them.
