The foreign ministers of the Arab states held a meeting in Damascus, in which they discussed the plans of the Arab states with regard to Israel, and the position of the Arab governments on Mr. Hammarskjöld's report on his recent journey in the Middle East.
Likewise, on May 27 the two prime ministers of the governments of Lebanon and Syria met at Chtaura and discussed the official Arab position toward the meetings of the Security Council to debate the results of Mr. Hammarskjöld's talks in the capitals of the Arab states and Israel; and it was decided that Dr. Fouad Ammoun, Secretary-General of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, should travel to New York to join the representatives of the Arab states at the meeting of the international Security Council.
On May 28, 1956, His Excellency President Shukri al-Quwatli arrived in Amman, coming from Damascus, on an official visit to the Jordanian Kingdom, accompanied by a Syrian military mission

On May 21, 1956, the United States of America carried out the test of a hydrogen bomb in the Bikini islands, which the observers and the pressmen who were permitted to watch the tests described as the greatest test in the history of hydrogen bombs; its effect was very great indeed.
And on the night of May 27–28, the observatories of Tokyo recorded tremors coming from Bikini, thought to be the result of the test of a second American bomb of this kind.
As in Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco, Malaya, and Singapore, so too in Cyprus: the people of this little island demand deliverance from Britain at any price. The demonstrations go on, the search campaigns continue, and the Cypriots — "it's a goat, even if it flies" — demand independence. Will Harding permit it?
