Tells U. N. Russia
Cannot Stand Idle
While West Acts

situation in that area bears
closely on Russia's security.
He struck back vigorously at
charges made by Secretary of
State Dulles that the Kremlin
was risking q Middle East con-
fiict BY sending arms to Arab
countries. The real cause Of
the trouble, he said, is Western
attempts to dominate the area.

ton with its allies"

place itself in the position Of |
an impassiye observer while the
Near and Middle East--an area |
close to the frontiers Of the So /
Wet Union. is being turned into |
q permanent hotbed Of military |
conflicts"
Puts Blame on NATO
He accused the West Of in-l
venting charges against the So
Wet Union to hide its own in
tentions to dominate the Mid
die East.
He placed the blame specifi-
cally on the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization and as
serted that rude political and
economic pressure is being ex-
erted" against Syria.

ing more and more frequently
threatened with open military

a growing military danger" as
a result of Soviet arms massed

the Middle East situation.

THE Assembly made useful
contribution at its last session
when it raised its vioce in de-
tense Of Egypt.

contribution. If it would raise
its powerful voice in defense
OF the independence OF other
states In the Near and Middle
East and condemn resolutely
the dangerous policy which is
being pursued by some powers
in regard to them"
