I am very miserable about the result of the vote on this humanitarian draft resolution. We remind you that the entire world is standing by the people of South Africa. * Quoted in English by the speaker. But Israel is collaborating with the South African r6gime. In this connection I should like to quote from an article in the Economist-a publication from your own country, the United Kingdom. “Yet Israeli-South African relations, especially mil- itary ones, are the cosiest of all. .A host of joint research projects bind the countries together. .For instance, South African steel has helped to give the Merkava an extra-strong armour-plating; South Africa now makes its own version of the Ktir. A joint submarine-building project is under way; and-most sensitive of all-South African’ uranium . . . is thought to have been used to develop Israel’s capacity for making a nuclear bomb.*‘* 269. These questions must be posed, must be thought out and must be directed to the representative of Israel, who is in this Chamber. 270.
