Extract

The Council of the ANZUS Pacific Security Pact met in Washington, D.C., on June 30, 1954, to survey the situation in southeast Asia in the light of concurrent developments. The Council members agreed that immediate action to bring about the early establishment of collective defense in southeast Asia was needed and further agreed that, should the French government be confronted, at the Geneva conference, with demands which would prevent an acceptable agreement regarding Indochina, the international situation would have been seriously aggravated. The three govern- ments were represented by their foreign ministers: Mr. Casey for Australia, Mr. Munro for New Zealand and Mr. Dulles for the United States.
