42. The United Nations must do everything necessary to achieve a satisfactory solution of such fundamental problems as the reduction of armaments, the prohibition of the atomic and hydrogen weapons and other types of weapons of mass destruction, and of other important questions designed to strengthen international peace and security. The peoples of the whole world expect the United Nations to take effective and constructive action to strengthen international peace and security. Hundreds of millions of people live in faith and hope that there will be a further reduction of international tension. It is our duty to justify these generous hopes of the peoples.
