UN General Assembly
1975

2. May I express to you, Mr. President, my most sincere congratulations on your well-deserved election to preside over our work. Nevertheless I feel that in these moments in world history we are not entitled to be complacent regarding good wishes but, rather, we must make an over-all and complete appeal for collective responsibility. 3. From this same rostrum four years ago I expressed the confidence of Mexico in our Organization.1 At that time we ratified, and today we reiterate, our adherence to its animating purposes and principles, 4. We believe in the validity of dialog in seeking areas of understanding among countries with different ideologies and also in establishing forms of co-operation among all people. 5. Despite the difficulties with which the United Nations has been faced, the combined efforts of the peoples who compose it make it possible for us to advance towards a more just and equitable international structure.
