UN General Assembly
1977

"Current international development is characterized by great dynamism. The opportunities for strengthening peace are growing—and growing irresistibly We firmly believe that realism in politics and the will for detente and progress will ultimately prevail and that mankind will be able to step into the twenty-first century in conditions of peace, more secure than ever before." 41. In their struggle for peace, for the deepening of the process of international detente and for its extension to all parts of the world, the States of the socialist community have taken the initiative and are rendering unfailing support to United Nations efforts to prevent war, strengthen international security and develop co-operation among States, in accordance with the provisions of its Charter.
