8 In the original form of the draft resolution, this paragraph had observed that the broad lines of the agreement followed closely those envisaged by the committee on General Affairs; Mr. Kiesinger (German Ferderal Republic, Christian Democrat), who held the view that in the light of the defeat of EDC, Europeanization of the saar as envisaged in the van Naters plan would be unacceptable to Germany, proposed the more general phraseology, summarized above (Document 323, Amendment No.3). His amendment was incorporated into the draft presented to the Consultative Assembly for a final vote.
