Abstract

The seventh session of the Ministerial Council of the Central Treaty Organization (CENTO), formerly known as the Baghdad Pact, was held in Washington, D. C., October 7–9, 1959. In its communiqué issued following the meeting, the Council welcomed the conclusion of bilateral agreements between the United States and the regional members, Iran, Pakistan, and Turkey, noting with gratification the determination of die United States to assist the signatory nations to maintain their security and independence, while simultaneously contributing to die enhancement of their economic potential. The statement emphasized that CENTO existed solely for defensive purposes, that it threatened no one, and that it sincerely desired to have close and friendly relations with all other states, particularly with the neighboring states in the region.
