UN General Assembly

58. Security, we submit, cannot be achieved separately in the nuclear age, even with unlimited diversion of national resources to military uses and even if all nations were grouped in two or more cohesive power blocs. It can only be achieved gradually through a common effort. Such an effort ought in our view, to begin in limited areas. A collective effort in such areas would be a far more effective safeguard for the security of individual members than military competition can be, and would involve far less consumption of national resources.
