UN General Assembly
1990

On the other hand, for about a year now, we have been witnessing the emergence of a more prominent United Nations political role which has continued to grow perceptibly La international relations. It even appears that this role is on its way towards the realisation of the objectives envisioned by the authors of the Charter at the Conference of San Francisco in 1945. While expressing our satisfaction at this positive development, we believe that, after a half century of its existence, the United Nations system needs a thorough re-examination.
