HC Deb 13 October 1969 vol 788 cc5-6W
42. Mr. Goodhart

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what support he has given in international bodies during the past three months to American proposals for ending the war in Vietnam.

Mr. M. Stewart

At the United Nations General Assembly last month I welcomed President Nixon's proposals for peace in Vietnam, in particular those concerned with the withdrawal of American troops. The desire of the United States to negotiate a fair settlement is unmistakable. We are now anxiously awaiting comparable statesmanship from the other side.
