Page 8: Allied Garrisons and the U.N. Veto
AI-Generated Summary
This document outlines the status of Allied garrisons in Europe and summarizes a Manchester Guardian critique of the Soviet use of the U.N. veto. It highlights the growing geopolitical tension and the potential for future international planning without Russian involvement.
This document, identified as page 8 of a larger report, addresses two primary geopolitical concerns of the post-war era. First, it states that with the exception of those stationed in Germany, all Allied garrisons in Europe should return home as soon as possible. Second, it provides a summary of an article from the Manchester Guardian regarding the United Nations veto. The paper argues that the veto was originally intended to prevent the U.N. from going to war with a Great Power. However, it notes that Soviet fears have caused Russia to extend the use of the veto to cover nearly all activities of the Council, excluding only the most elementary discussions. The document concludes by suggesting that even without the veto, Mr. Molotov would likely find ways to obstruct the Council, and that the international community may eventually have to formulate plans without Russian participation, a prospect described as a great danger and a great tragedy.
It may be that, in the end, we shall have to make our plans without Russia. That would be a great danger, and a great tragedy.
