It stated it would abide by the recommendations of the UN General Assembly, whereby elections would be delayed until June, separate referendums would be held on the existence of the monarchy and the issue of independence, and a more broad-based provisional government would be installed. With the possibility of a coalition government including UNAR now likely, Kigeli made plans to return to the country. Hutu politicians and the colonial administration were infuriated by this decision, which was made by the metropolitan government.

The elections scheduled for January were also delayed until June, giving PARMEHUTU more time to organise. In January 1960 Logiest declared "e must undertake an action in favour of the Hutu, who live in a state of ignorance and under oppressive influences.
