text: Argentine forces and to the completion of their with- drawal within a fixed period. This position was based squarely on resolution 502 (1982). 94. The representative of Argentina has set out in full the responses of his Government during the past week. He has also purported to set out the positions of my Government. I do not intend to follow him down that particular road of controversy. The Secretary- General has maintained a unique confidentiality about the nature of his negotiations since the outset, and, even in the face of the statement by the representa- tive of Argentina, I do not intend to breach that con- fidence. I would only say this: that the statement, the explanation, by the representative of Argentina makes clear, in my judgement, that if Argentine pre- conditions had been accepted they would have led us back into the morass of procrastination and evasion which my Government has experienced on the part of the Government of Argentina over the past two months of extremely intensive negotiation. 95. The plain fact is that until the Government of Argentina changes its position, it is clear that the conditions for a cease-fire do not exist. 96. Against this background, the call by the repre- sentatives of Spain and Panama for an unconditional, immediate cease-fire is not acceptabIe to my delega- tion, A cease-fire which is not inseparably linked to immediate Argentine withdrawal would not be consistent with resolution 502 (1982), because that resolution demands the immediate withdrawal of all Argentine forces from the Falkland Islands. The call for an unconditional cease-fire would leave Argentine forces in position. 97. As I indicated earlier, the United Kingdom is perfectly prepared for a cease-fire so long as it is inextricably linked to implementation of the demand in resolution 502 (1982) for Argentine withdrawal.
