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. Security Council Includes statements made by the USSR, Hungary, Ireland and the US. The US introduced the draft resolution A/3658, and commended the work of the Special Committee and its conclusion that the uprising was spontaneous and an expression of the desire for freedom. It rejected the Hungarian delegation's view that the October events were merely an internal affair, since they involved violations of human rights guaranteed by the Peace Treaty of 1947, to which Hungary and USSR are signatories.
