UN General Assembly
1958

154. My country is keenly interested in seeing more effective steps taken to solve one problem which particularly hampers the work of international reconciliation: that of the reunification of various States which are still divided as a result of the cold war. The longstanding and close economic and cultural relations between the Chilean and German peoples make us particularly sensitive to the need to bring about the unification of the great German nation. Let us hope that the endeavours and political vision of the Powers which bear the primary responsibility, for world peace, will lead to the restoration of the German, Korean and Viet-Namese peoples as nations unified by historical tradition and common interests. 155. An important item on the agenda of the present Assembly is the calling of a second United Nations Conference on the Law of the Sea to continue the study of certain Important questions on which no decision was reached at the first Conference held in Geneva from 24 February to 29 April 1958.
