Bajpai informs us that the Indian Government proposes to hold to
the principle that the Dutch should provide the necessary
assistance. He does not think there is much to be gained by
appealing to the interested nations. He said that in any case
India is in no position to help. He considers that if assistance
is not forthcoming from the Dutch, the Security Council might
perhaps be able to arrange for essential facilities to be made
available from its own United Nations Administration stocks.
