140. It is my understanding that the Council is ready to proceed to the vote on the draft resolution before it. Unless I hear any objection, I shall now put the draft resolution to the vote. 141. I have been informed by the sponsors of the draft resolution of the following revisions: In paragraph 5 there is a small revision, which consists in deleting the words 11 “capabilities in the face of’ and substituting the words “capacity against”; the words “against these countries” should be deleted. 142. In order to make this quite clear, I will read para- graph 5 as it now stands after the revisions: “Retie+ Member States urgently to extend all necessary assistance to the People’s Republic of Angola and other front-line States, in order to strengthen their defence capacity against South Africa’s acts of aggression;“. 143: ‘If there is’no objection,’ we will now proceed to the vote on the draft resolution as orally revised. 144. Mr. WALTERS (United States of America): Could we possibly have, under rule 33 of the provisional rules of procedure, a short recess to discuss this matter a bit further before we put it to a vote? ‘. 145.. The PRESIDENT: Does the Council agree with this request? I.. 146. Mr. TROYANOVSKY (Union of Soviet. Socialist Republics): Is that possible under the rules of procedure, since we have started the process of voting? 147. The PRESIDENT: I am open to expert opinion, but my personal understanding is that once the voting proce- dure has started, it should not be interrupted. However, perhaps in the circumstances, the request of the representa- tive of the United States might be met. 148. Mr. OUDOVENKO (Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic) (interpretation from Russian): How long would you intend this break to be, Mr. President? 149. The PRESIDENT: Let us say 10 minutes.

The text appears to be a discussion about a draft resolution related to international relations, specifically regarding a conflict between South Africa and Angola. The resolution seems to be focused on providing assistance to the affected countries and strengthening their defense capacity. The debate centers around the timing of the vote, with the representative of the United States requesting a recess to discuss the matter further.
