“The more people like Jean [Kirkpatrick] and yourself speak out and attack the United Nations, the better chance we have of stopping the rot and of putting paid to the Soviet campaign. I hope that your withdrawal from Unesco will awaken people to the realities. In this connection I was very interested to read an editorial in the Economist asking why the British Government had not had the initiative to take similar steps in Unesco.”
