asked the Prime Minister whether he will discuss with President Nixon during his visit to the United States of America the position of Greece in the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation.

The details of the discussions I shall be having with the President are confidential.

Will the Prime Minister urge the President to cease the supply of arms to Greece, which he has recently resumed, and remind him of the terms of the N.A.T.O. Treaty, the purpose of which is to preserve individual liberty, democracy and the rule of law? Finally, will he remind him that this is important on both sides of the Iron Curtain?

The question of Greece's military position is one for the N.A.T.O. Alliance and for the Americans in so far as their own supply of arms is concerned. Our views in wishing Greece to return to democratic processes are well known. There is no need for me to tell the President that.
