“The Non-Aligned States welcomed the progress so far achieved in the relaxation of tension between the great Powers, but they emphasized that detente was still limited both in scope and geographical extent. 10. When President Mohamed Anwar El-Sadat addressed the thirtieth session of the General Assembly on 29 October 1975, he had this to say: "We in Egypt are for detente and welcome it, if it takes into account the interests of small States, their national destinies and the aspirations of their peoples. Detente cannot be what it means unless it is an interaction, from the bottom to the top." 11.”

“The kind of world they hope to build is one in which a new international economic order can be realized, bringing about economic well-being for all, social justice for all and a just peace for all a world, as the Secretary-General explained in the introduction to his report to this session on the work of the Organization [A/31/l/Add.1], which respects the resolutions of the United Nations and international law -in short, a world that is governed by the principles and objectives of the Charter of the United Nations. 9. The countries of the third world have defined their attitude towards the phenomenon of detente on more than one occasion, most recently at the Fifth Conference of Heads of State or Government of Non-Aligned Countries.”

“The world today is one of constant movement and change. The phenomenon of international detente symbolizes the change which has taken place in relations between the super-Powers, but the third-world countries and all peace-loving peoples are still striving resolutely to build a new world -a world which rejects all forms of domination, coercion, exploitation and discrimination. 8.”

“While the admission of Seychelles to the United Nations may be said to mark a new step towards the universality of the Organization, we earnestly hope that this universality will be completed very soon by the admission of Angola, unified Viet Nam, Namibia, the free State of Palestine and Zimbabwe. 6. Before proceeding with the rest of my statement, I should like, on behalf of the People and Government of Egypt, to pay a tribute to the memory of Chairman Mao Tsetung, a great leader. The people and Government of Egypt have shared whole-heartedly the grief of the great Chinese people over the regrettable loss of Chairman Mao, who left his mark on the history of his country as he led it to progress. His constructive action for a better future for humanity and the establishment of a just peace in the world will always be remembered. 7.”

“Waldheim's record of activity and achievement, as well as the statements delivered by him in numerous forums, the latest of which were the African summit conference and the non-aligned Conference, reflect clearly the dynamism of the Secretary- General and his full commitment to our Organization's aims and its endeavors to build a new world -a world of justice, prosperity and peace. In commending his efforts, Egypt supports his re-election to a second term of office. 5. In the name of Egypt, I congratulate and welcome the Republic of Seychelles. We are confident that independent Seychelles will be a new asset, serving the cause of peace and justice in the world.”

“Pressure of work forced Mr. Ismail Fahmy, head of the Egyptian delegation and Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Foreign Affairs, to stay in Cairo, and he has asked me to deliver this statement on his behalf. 2. I have the pleasure to address this Assembly at its thirty-first session under the presidency of Mr. Amerasinghe. His unanimous election as President of this session signifies international regard for the great Asian continent and for Sri Lanka, a country with which we have close friendship. It is also an expression of the recognition and esteem in which he is held. The close ties of friendship and co-operation between our two countries and the pioneering role played by Mrs.”
