do neither. Let those people go. It is the only real answer. And do it now. The action of the Council stands in stark contrast to Iraq's policies. Far from using the plight of the most vulnerable as an opportunity for blackmail, far even from indifference to the condition of the civilian population in Kuwait and Iraq, the Security Council has adopted in resolution 666 (1990) a fair procedure that, if not rejected by Iraq, will allow for food and medical supplies essential to the Well-being of civilians to reach them. Let us once again say to the Government of Iraq: let international humanitarian agencies do their work. The United States has voted in favour of resolution 666 (1990) because it guarantees the integrity of United Nations efforts to end Iraq's occupation of Kuwait by peaceful means. Since 2 August, the members of the Security Council have worked together to repel the aggression against Kuwait and to define a new era of international co-operation under the Charter. Besolution 666 (1990) is additional proof that the international community is determined to stay the course in rejecting Iraq's occupation of Kuwait.
