Question

Read the passage from Eleanor Roosevelt’s speech on the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Answer 1

Answer:

Roosevelt’s goal in the passage is to persuade the general assembly to pass the UDHR at the fourth session.

Explanation:

This is because the soviet proposal is made in order to defer the consideration of the declaration in the 4th session of the assembly. There must be approval by the assembly in the 4th session before the declaration of the rights is too late. There was rejection of the committee because of the different facts and finally it was passed in the 4th session.
