Abstract

The fifteenth Congress of the Universal Postal Union (UPU) met in Vienna from May 29 to July 10, 1964, under the chairmanship of Benno Schaginger of Austria. Nearly 500 delegates representing 122 countries participated in the sessions. On June 5, 1964, however, the Congress approved a resolution expelling South Africa from UPU by a vote of 58 in favor, 30 opposed, with 26 abstentions. During the debate on this question several delegates maintained that the resolution was illegal since a country could only be expelled for violating UPU's regulations. The South African delegate remained in the conference hall after the vote but left at the request of the presiding officer when African delegates demanded his withdrawal.
