UN General Assembly
1986

The prevailing situation in Central America constitutes one of the major focal points of tension both at the regional and international levels. In spite of the efforts of the Contadora Group of countries aimed at securing a negotiated solution to the crisis in Central America, the problems remain unresolved, thus endangering the peace and security of the entire region. In this regard, Thailand supports the tireless efforts of the Contadora Group and its Support Group in Central America, It is regrettable that senseless acts of terrorism continue, despite the endeavors of the international community to prevent them. Terrorism has .affected innocent human lives, regardless of nationality. It also jeopardizes friendly relations between States and endangers international peace and security. Therefore, the General Assembly last year, for the first time, unanimously adopted a resolution condemning terrorism and recommending measures to combat it. It is also the firm belief of my delegation that terrorism enjoys no legal justification nor should it be condoned under any circumstances.
