B. Ad article 11, paragraph 3:
The Hungarian People's Republic declares that the provisions of article 11, paragraph 3 of the Convention are inconsistent with the principles of the independence of colonial countries and peoples, formulated, inter alia, also in resolution No. 1514 (XV) of the United Nations General Assembly.
