INDONESIA

At meeting of Delhi representatives today some objections were
raised to the inclusion of Indonesia as agenda item chiefly by
Iran, Egypt and Iraq. China also expressed some doubts on the
ground that action would not be favoured by Security Council.

India and ourselves mentioned that inclusion of item at beginning
of session did not necessarily mean that there would be immediate
discussion and there would still be time to see whether present
processes were likely to lead to satisfactory results. We said
also that it could be made clear that there is no intention of
criticizing the Security Council and that the sole object of
inclusion would be to support the Security Council in endeavour to
ensure compliance with January resolution. [1]

2. No conclusion was reached by the meeting. India and ourselves
both think, however, that we should go ahead in association with
as many others of the group who wish to go along. It is uncertain
how many will be so prepared but in any case, there will be no
open opposition on the part of any of the group when the matter
comes up.

3. Have discussed briefly with Minister today but prior to
meeting. He seemed to contemplate that great majority of group
would be in agreement but I think also that action by even 4 or 5,
including India, would be in line with intentions. I will assume
this to be the case unless I hear to the contrary from you.
