UN General Assembly
1960

The attention of the world is riveted on this session of the United Nations General Assembly. One reason this session is regarded as an outstanding international event is that the most prominent statesmen from many countries are taking part in the discussion of problems which are of vital importance for all mankind. 120. The lofty and noble principles enshrined in the United Nations Charter impose a grave responsibility upon us, the representatives of various countries of the world. We must not forget that the United Nations wag set up ”to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war, which twice in our lifetime has brought untold Sorrow to mankind”. 121. These words from the Preamble of the United Nations Charter express the dearest wishes of the peoples of all lands. The delegations of many peace-loving States are working tirelessly in the United Nations for the attainment of this noble goal. Together with these countries, the Byelorussian Soviet Socialist Republic has been defending international peace and security and it will continue to do so.
