Description
Summary:Records of this digital collection were assembled to document the work of the UN Special Committee on the Problem of Hungary established on January 10, 1957 by the United Nations General Assembly for the purpose of investigating the 1956 Hungarian revolution. Principal contributor(s): United Nations. General Assembly China, Brazil, Netherlands, United Kingdom, France and others make deeply moving speeches in defense and support of the freedom of the Hungarian people during their uprising. They accuse the Hungarian government of not letting up on the persecutions, death sentences and executions of Hungarians. Refusal of the Hungarian Government to permit the special representative Sir Leslie Munro to enter the country draws very strong disapproval from member states.
