9. It Is our view that, if relations between States are to be based entirely on the principles of peaceful coexistence, an end must be put to the "cold war". The nations cannot allow the unnatural state of the "cold war" to continue any longer, just as they cannot allow an epidemic of the plague or cholera to rage unchecked. 10. What do we mean by terminating the "cold war" and what does that entail? 11. In the first place, calls to war must cease. There is no point in concealing the fact that some nearsighted statesmen continue to deliver belligerent speeches. Is it not time to put an end to sabre-rattling and the uttering of threats against other States? 12. The "cold war" is doubly dangerous because it is being waged in the midst of an unbridled armaments race which is growing like a snowball and intensifying the feeling of suspicion and distrust among States.
