UN General Assembly
1965

"It seems to me essential therefore, that when the world disarmament conference is held, it should take place under conditions which would make it possible for all countries, if they so wished, to participate in its deliberations. This would be, in my view, a very significant step forward in the relaxation of international tension and the reduction of the feeling of insecurity which prevails in various parts of the world." Those were the words of the Secretary-General of the United Nations. We therefore have high hopes that the Assembly will respond to the wishes of the Disarmament Commission and will ensure that a world conference is held as soon as is reasonably possible.
