UN General Assembly
1961

68. I do not wish to give an answer here to my question. I pose the question only so that, when we withdraw the troops and the police from the Congo, each Member State of the United Nations may contribute troops and police for occupying Berlin and maintaining the peace of Berlin in the interests of mankind, preferably, none of the big Powers should have any say there, and those who control the area should be drawn from the smaller Powers. Is that possible, in order to save mankind from destruction because of Berlin? 69. This is a question which I should like to put, and I should like to ask Members of the Assembly to think about, it. We are young States, and we do not want to be involved in power politics. We can only explain the way our minds are working in the light of the facts as they appear to us.
