1. “Their stubborn refusal to replace the representatives of the Kuomintang-Chiang Kai-shek clique in the Security Council and the other United Nations organs by the true representatives of the lawful government of the People’s Republic of China demonstrates that the United States, the United Kingdom, France and the States supporting them have no desire for co-operation and the strengthening of the United Nations. 97. The United Nations radio station broadcasts open reactionary war propaganda. The broadcasts are imbued with a spirit of hysteria and provocation inimical to the cause of peace. 98.”

2. “International events during the past year have fully confirmed these words. The entire work of the United Nations — in which the Anglo-American bloc is the directing nucleus — over the past year testifies to the incessant efforts of the Anglo-American bloc to undermine the principle of the equal rights of States. 95. Conversely, the delegation of the Byelorussian SSR and those other delegations friendly to our point of view have endeavoured to preserve the principle of the equal fights of States, and to maintain general peace and security throughout the world. Surely it should be the duty of the United Nations to ensure equality, peace and friendship among the nations, on a basis of mutual trust and cooperation, rather than help to make the present international situation worse. 96.”

3. “The policy of strengthening international co-operation on a basis of respect for the independence and sovereign equality of nations has not been carried out in the United Nations. 92. International developments during the last year fully confirm the profound political analysis of the work of the United Nations made by Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin, head of the Soviet Government. 93. In an interview on 17 February 1951 with a correspondent of Pravda, J. V. Stalin said: “The United Nations, established as a stronghold of peace, is being transformed into a weapon of war and an instrument for launching a new world war... Thus, the United Nations is following in the inglorious tracks of the League of Nations, thereby destroying its own moral authority and bringing about its own downfall 94.”

4. “At this session we are taking stock of the work of the United Nations over the six years of its existence. The delegation of the Byelorussian Soviet Socialist Republic also wishes to express its views on the results of that work. 90. The longing of the peoples for a firm and durable peace is a characteristic of our era, and we should therefore ask ourselves how far the United Nations has succeeded in discharging its duties under the Charter. 91. We are compelled to answer frankly that the United Nations has failed to justify the hopes and expectations of the peoples of the whole world, who want a lasting peace, the development and strengthening of international cooperation and the promotion of trade, economic co-operation and social progress.”
