- Summary: 1. GV Parliament building Ottawa 0.10 2. CU Sharp speaking to reporters 0.51 "The only hope," said Mr. Sharp, "that a peace observation team can have is that the two parties gave genuinely entered into a spirit of conciliation and accord. Then an international control commission can help to police the agreement. It has no chance of enforcing an agreement. And that is the position in which we had found ourselves. Moreover, the commission had divided between the Poles and Hungarians, who by their actions had made it clear that they were supporting the position of one of the two parties to the dispute. Between these two considerations, it was obvious that our concept of a peace-keeping role couldn't possibly be satisfied." Initials SGM/0327 SGM/0333 Script is copyright Reuters Limited.
