The National Assembly of the Congo (B) held an extraordinary session on August 26th to discuss the political sitamtion in the country. This action was taken after U.S. and Belgium-made arms from Congo ‘leopilaville) were unearthed in the country and the expulsion of Congolese (B) citizens from Congo (L). In a speech to the session, the Prime Minister said "A most serious situation faces the country. There is a plot engineered by a foreign country with powerful support and means outside Africa against our freedome" He then outlined a four-point plan to deal with the crisis. The Assembly went into secret session.
