The US Secretary of State tried convincing the UNSC to have a meeting. However, they failed to pass a resolution; the fact that the US was involved in the Suez crisis meant it could do little to comment or act on the 1956 Hungarian revolution.

The risk of igniting a hot war with the Soviet Union presented a great risk, versus relatively little benefit if the Hungarian Revolt were to succeed.
During the Hungarian Revolution of 1956, President Dwight D. Eisenhower expressed moral support for the Hungarian people's desire for freedom from Soviet control. However, he stopped short of providing direct military assistance or intervention, largely due to the fear of escalating tensions with the Soviet Union during the Cold War. Instead, the U.S. offered limited support through propaganda and the encouragement of uprisings in Eastern Europe, but ultimately, the Soviet military crushed the revolt without significant American intervention. Eisenhower's administration faced criticism for not doing more to help the Hungarian freedom fighters.
Eisenhower did not use American troops to support the revolt and NATO did not intervene when USSR crushed the revolution. One problem was that Britain and France were fighting Egypt over the Suez at this time and the US backed them.
