asking the Council to repudiate all action 1t took in Gromyko's ab- sence. The Russians, in effect, want the Council to say that 1t was wrong and that the Soviet union was right throughout the last hectic two weeks of Russias boycott of the Council.
 Other members of the Council had expected Russia to retaliate for events of the last two weeks which placed Russia on the defensive. But few had anticipated this kind of retaliation. They anticipated Rus sian moves designed to embarrass the other powers-such as Polands injection of the Spanish issue into the Council.
 Although Russia's move was a sur- prise, there was no indication among Council members of weakening in their stand. British officials pointed out for example that the Councils request for May 6 report was mild under the circumstances.
 They pointed out that neither the Council nor parties to the l42 Rus so o-British- -Iranian Treaty were dis- posed at this time to press the point that Russia had violated that treaty by not getting out of Iran by March 2. Thus, they added, the least the Russians could do would be to report to the Council on May 6 that they have evacuated Iran under the new agreement.
