§ 5. Mr. Winnickasked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what further representations are being made at the United Nations and other international bodies over the continued Russian occupation of Czechoslovakia.
§ The Minister of State, Foreign and Commonwealth Office (Mr. Goronwy Roberts)None, Sir. The question of Czechoslovakia remains before the Security Council.
§ Mr. WinnickWould my right hon. Friend not agree that there is as much admiration amongst British people as there is amongst Czechs for the noble motives which led Jan Palach to take his life a few weeks ago, and that the guilt of the Munich Agreement is one reason why we have a special regard for the Czech people now under Russian occupation?
§ Mr. RobertsCertainly I agree with the general purport and spirit of what my hon. Friend says. I must warn, him, however, that, when he deals with specific 13 treaties, there are a number of international questions as to legality which need to be considered very carefully.
