§ 38. Mr. Teelingasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if, in view of requests that Israel be forced to return to the Armistice line, he will give a further assurance that in the negotiations arising out of the armed conflict in the Middle East he will press for a fair and satisfactory border line between Israel and Egypt.
§ Commander NobleAs my right hon. and learned Friend has said in New York recently, Her Majesty's Government certainly want to settle the Palestine problem on a basis of justice. Satisfactory borders will be one element in such a settlement. We must also have a settlement of the problem of the Palestine refugees. My hon. Friend will no doubt be aware that the Palestine question is on the agenda of the present session of the General Assembly. Her Majesty's Government are prepared to play their part, as a member of the United Nations, in seeking such a solution.
