UN General Assembly
1983

210. At the Fifth Ministerial Meeting of the Group of 77, in preparation for the sixth session of the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development, the developing countries adopted the Buenos Aires Platform, which contains important statements with a view to reactivation of the world economy and accelerated development of the third-world countries, mainly in the areas of international trade, commodities, financing and other relevant issues. 211. In spite of the disappointing results of the sixth session, we consider that the statements in the Buenos Aires Platform constitute the most coherent basis for the promotion of the North-South dialogue and for eventual global negotiations from which the new international economic order may result, giving full effect to the economic rights enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. 212. The frustrating experience of Belgrade prompts us, furthermore, to reaffirm the need to strengthen and increase South-South co-operation as one of our main responses to the crisis.
