释义 |
An unofficial referendum on integration with Guam was held in the Northern Mariana Islands on 6 October 1963.[1] Although the proposal was approved by voters,[1] the islands were not integrated. BackgroundPrevious referendums in 1958 and 1961 had been in favor of integration. Both the Guam Legislature and Saipan Congress had passed resolutions requesting reunification.[2] The 1963 referendum was organized by the local Parliament as members wanted the islands to integrate with Guam, and was timed to coincide with the 1964 visit of a United Nations commission looking at the status of the UN Trust Territories.[1][2] Results
AftermathThe results were presented to the mission, with the mission's report responding that secession from a UN Trust Territory was not possible "and should be regarded as firmly settled".[2] References1. ^1 2 Northern Mariana Islands, 6 October 1963: Integration with Guam Direct Democracy {{de icon}} {{Northern Mariana Islands elections}}2. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.guampedia.com/history-of-efforts-to-reunify-the-mariana-islands/|title=History of Efforts to Reunify the Mariana Islands|work=Guampedia}} 4 : 1963 referendums|1963 in the Northern Mariana Islands|Referendums in the Northern Mariana Islands|Independence referendums |
