UN General Assembly
1983

We think not. Can the United Nations do so with greater charity and more effectiveness We think so. Should the world community continue the investment it has already made in the United Nations Without doubt. We believe that the United Nations has already given us all a favourable return and justified its existence many times over. 108. We must remember that the United Nations is an outgrowth of the Second World War alliance against the Axis Powers. As such, the Organization represents an international alliance against fascism, militarism and racism. 109. It was never intended to be, and because of its nature and the realities of our world it can never effectively be, an alliance against communism any more than it can, or even should, be an alliance against capitalism. The social and economic system that any country chooses to live under is a matter that is best left to the people of that country. This is true regardless of that country's name, size or location, be it the United States or be it Nicaragua.
