Abstract: This issue covers the work of the Security Council from the 132nd meeting on April 30, 1947, to the 170th meeting on July 29, 1947.The Greek QuestionThe Security Council discussed the Greek question twice in the period under review, from May 12 to May 22, 1947, and from June 27 to July 29, 1947.On May 8, 1947, the Soviet representative (Gromyko) requested that the Greek question again be placed on the agenda. In addition to Mr. Gromyko's request, the Council had, when the matter was taken up on May 12, communications from the Chairman of the Commission of Investigation Concerning Greek Frontier Incidents and from the Yugoslav, Albanian, and Bulgarian liaison officers to the Commission. The burden of the letters from the liaison officers was 1) that their respective countries had participated loyally in the work of facilitating the investigation; 2) that the action of the Commission in appointing a Subsidiary Group to remain in Greece, with the terms of reference as defined, was beyond its competence until its report had been acted upon by the Security Council; and 3) that the three governments would therefore not participate in the activities of the Subsidiary Group. The Chairman of the Commission reported that the Commission had accepted the view of the French representative (Daux) that it did not have the competence to answer these notes from the liaison officers and that the whole matter should be referred to the Security Council.
