Documents on international affairs: 1956
The crisis in the Middle East pro- duced something which may well be described as a diplomatic revolution. It began apparently with an American rebuff to Egypt. It ended with scarcely veiled threats from America to Israel and in midstream it revealed the United States and the Soviet Union in uneasy alliance against Britain and France. It split the fragile unity of the Commonwealth and it led Britain for the first time to exercise the veto in the Security Council. President Nasser effectively nationalized the Suez Canal, and the West was thrown into disarray. The cry of imperialism spoke louder than that of fascism returned. Yet when all was said and done the situation appeared to be remarkably similar to what it had been before.
