HC Deb 22 March 1968 vol 761 c174W
Mrs. McKay

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if, in view of the fact that Israel has committed an act of military aggression against Jordan by her invasion of Jordanian territory on 21st March, which constitutes a new threat to world peace, he will now instruct Her Majesty's Government's representative at the United Nations to take action to implement the British-sponsored Security Council resolution which called on Israel to withdraw from the occupied Arab lands and to restore the refugees to their rightful homes.

Mr. Goronwy Roberts

At the United Nations my right hon. and noble Friend Lord Caradon has deplored Israel's recent military action across the Jordan, as well as all other acts of violence in breach of the cease-fire agreements. These latest clashes underline the vital importance of Mr. Jarring's Mission and the need for both sides to respond constructively to any proposals he may make directed towards the implementation of the Security Council Resolution of 22nd November.
