Records of this digital collection were assembled to document the work of the UN Special Committee on the Problem of Hungary established on January 10, 1957 by the United Nations General Assembly for the purpose of investigating the 1956 Hungarian Revolution. Principal contributor(s): United Nations. General Assembly

This document is the second and concluding document of the Special Committee. Mr. Leslie Munro was assigned the task of watching and reporting on further developments on the situation in Hungary. The United Nations General Assembly would continue its commitment to be the voice of the Hungarian people, a voice that had "been stifled by the Soviet oppressors". While the first Special Report was considered by the Assembly on 14 September 1957 and was based mainly on examining the evidence of eye witnesses, this report was based on official Government texts and communiqués, and in reports in official Hungarian newspapers.
