“13 L As to the so-called peaceful settlement of the problem of southern Africa, the policy of supporting the Salisbury and Pretoria regimes pursued by the authors of those plans should not be overlooked. I should like to emphasize further that in southern Africa we are dealing primarily with a national liberation movement of peoples, and no harm should be done to that movement under any pretext whatsoever. 132. It is evident that the joint action of the peoples of southern Africa and their close alliance with all progressive forces in the world constitute an important factor which will expedite the triumph of their just cause. 133. The Mongolian People's Republic supports the struggle of the developing countries for the restructuring of international economic relations on a just and democratic basis.”

“It is imperative for the United Nations and world public opinion to increase their all-round assistance to the fighting peoples of Zimbabwe, Namibia and South Africa, and further urge certain Western Powers to desist from all collaboration with the racist regimes. The Mongolian People's Republic stands for the full and unconditional transfer of power to the people of Zimbabwe, the immediate granting of independence to Namibia and the cessation of the policy of racism and apartheid in the Republic of South Africa. 127. It is high time to take effective measures against the racist regimes, as provided for in the United Nations Charter and in Security Council and General Assembly resolutions, as well as in the decisions of a number of representative international forums held under the aegis of the United Nations.”

“It is a well-known fact that the racist regimes of South Africa and Southern Rhodesia, with extensive support from their Western patrons, are not only persisting in carrying out an inhuman racist policy towards the indigenous peoples, but are consistently committing acts of aggression against neighbouring States, thus creating a threat to peace and security on the African continent. This situation has been further aggravated by the attempts of the South African racists to acquire nuclear weapons. Such a situation in southern Africa calls for the international community to exert further efforts for the speedy and full implementation of all United Nations resolutions for the complete elimination of colonialism and racism—primarily, the implementation of the Declaration on the Granting of Independence to Colonial Countries and Peoples. 126.”

“The Mongolian People's Republic favours the solution of the Cyprus problem on the basis of complete respect for the independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Republic of Cyprus. It is essential to put an end to all foreign interference in the internal affairs of Cyprus so that its ethnic communities can themselves solve the problem of the future of their country. We deem it useful that the United Nations and its Secretary General should further promote in every way the success of the intercommunal talks, in conformity with Security Council and General Assembly resolutions. 124. There can be no doubt that one of the most important tasks today is the elimination of the remaining strongholds of colonialism and the eradication of racism and apartheid. 125.”

“The withdrawal of all foreign troops stationed in South Korea, dissolution of the so-called United Nations Command , and replacement of the Armistice Agreement with a peace agreement, as provided for in the relevant resolution of the thirtieth session of the General Assembly, are pre-conditions for a peaceful settlement of the Korean problem. 122. We are convinced that the struggle of the Korean people for the creation of a unified, independent, democratic State will be crowned with victory and that this hotbed of tension in the Far East, fraught with potential danger to international peace, will be eliminated. 123. It is a matter of profound regret that the situation in Cyprus has so far shown no notable progress.”

“The presence of foreign troops in the south of Korea and the provocative actions of the South Korean regime, which impede the peaceful reunification of the country, are continuing seriously to complicate the situation in the Far East. 119. The initiatives of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea with regard to a peaceful and democratic solution of the Korean problem without any outside interference command broad international support. 120. This can be said with respect to the proposal made by the Democratic People's Republic of Korea on the convening of a political consultative meeting of the North and the South to be attended by representatives of political parties, public organizations and broad strata of people from both sides of the country. 121.”

“In the light of prevailing circumstances, the Geneva Peace Conference on the Middle East represents the only means capable of paving the way for a comprehensive solution to the problem. 116. We consider that the representatives of the Palestine Liberation Organization, recognized by the United Nations and the Organization of African Unity as the sole legitimate representative of the Arab people of Palestine, should be given an opportunity to participate in that Conference from the very beginning on an equal footing with others. 117. The Mongolian People's Republic, which has consistently supported the struggle of the Arab peoples against the Israeli aggressors, is convinced that the Arab countries will further consolidate their unity of action and that their just cause will ultimately be crowned with success. 118.”

“It is essential, in the first place, to eliminate hotbeds of tension and military conflicts if the foundations of lasting peace in Asia and throughout the world are to be built. 114. The further aggravation of the explosive situation in the Middle East by the aggressive and annexationist actions of the ruling circles of Israel is causing increasingly widespread concern. It is imperative speedily to achieve a lasting and just settlement of that crisis on the basis of the withdrawal of Israeli troops from all Arab territories occupied in 1967, and to secure the inalienable right of the Arab people of Palestine to self-determination, including their right to establish their own State, and to guarantee the independent existence of all States of the region. 115.”

“In setting forth the position of the Government of the Mongolian People's Republic on ways of creating an Asia-wide system of peace and security, Comrade Yumjagiyn Tsedenbal, First Secretary of the Central Committee of the Mongolian People's Revolutionary Party and Chairman of the Presidium of the People's Great Khural of the Mongolian People's Republic, said: The elimination of existing hotbeds of tension, the political settlement of outstanding international disputes, the permanent renunciation of the use or threat of force in international relations and the development of mutually beneficial co-operation among the States of the continent serve as a basis for ensuring peace and security in Asia 113.”
1977-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 32 (1977)
“It goes without saying that the principles of peaceful coexistence among States with different social systems, as well as principles stipulated in the United Nations Charter and in the Declaration of the Asian-African Conference, held at Bandung in 1955, should serve as a basis for ensuring peace and security in Asia. 111. The Mongolian People's Republic is of the view that, under circumstances of the steady consolidation of the forces of peace, national independence and social progress of peoples, and the further deepening of international detente, it is quite feasible to ensure peace in Asia through the collective efforts of all States of the continent. 112.”
1977-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 32 (1977)
“The Government of the Mongolian People's Republic attaches paramount importance to strengthening peace and security in Asia. For the last three decades this vast continent, where more than one half of the world's population lives, has continuously experienced wars and armed conflicts, provoked by neo-colonialist forces, and there still exist hotbeds of tension, fraught with danger to world peace. 108. The ensuring of lasting peace and security in Asia has assumed particular urgency in the light of the fact that virtually all the States of the region, with few exceptions, are developing countries faced with a great number of urgent problems of socio-economic development. 109. It is therefore natural that the peoples of Asia should be interested in ensuring durable peace throughout Asia. 110.”
1977-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 32 (1977)
“The need for strengthening the results achieved in curbing the arms race and producing further measures aimed at achieving the objectives of general and complete disarmament requires the active participation of all States, big and small, nuclear and non-nuclear. The proposal for the convening of a world Disarmament Conference, inter alia, takes account of such a requirement. The progress of the work of the Preparatory Committee for the Special Session of the General Assembly Devoted to Disarmament gives us, in our opinion, grounds for saying that such world forums will be capable of generating momentum for the struggle of the world community for disarmament and of outlining practical ways of achieving progress towards this end. 107.”
1977-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 32 (1977)
“The proposal made by the Soviet Union regarding the conclusion of such an instrument is designed to institutionalise in international relations the principle of the non-use of force, which has already been confirmed in many bilateral and multilateral treaties and also in the Final Act adopted by the Helsinki Conference on Security and Co-operation in Europe. 104. The delegation of the Mongolian People's Republic submits that this session of the General Assembly should indicate concrete measures leading to the elaboration of such a world treaty. 105. The proposal of the States parties to the Warsaw Treaty that all participants in the Conference on Security and Co-operation in Europe should undertake not to be the first to use nuclear weapons against each other will undoubtedly strengthen the atmosphere of confidence among States. 106.”
1977-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 32 (1977)
“In the opinion of my delegation this convention, being a first step in the efforts to prohibit the emergence of new means of mass destruction, could provide a stimulus to further negotiations in this field. 102. The Government of the Mongolian People's Republic is of the opinion that the conclusion of a world treaty on the non-use of force in international relations would be of great significance for the enhancement of the effectiveness of agreements already concluded on curbing the arms race and for creating a favourable atmosphere for making further progress in the disarmament talks. 103.”
1977-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 32 (1977)
“In these documents, which epitomize the main ideas of the Soviet memorandum on questions of ending the arms race and disarmament, in addition to the measures of nuclear disarmament, paramount importance is attached to the problems of the prohibition of chemical weapons and of the development and production of new types and systems of weapons of mass destruction. My delegation considers it necessary that certain results be achieved in the negotiations on these problems well before the special session of the General Assembly, which is to be held in May-June 1978. 101. The Convention on the Prohibition of Military or Any Other Hostile Use of Environmental Modification Techniques , signed last summer, is an important supplement to the measures already taken towards curbing the arms race. It is now essential to ensure its universality.”
1977-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 32 (1977)
“My delegation wishes to express the hope that the spirit of the Helsinki Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe, which plays an important role in strengthening detente in Europe, will have a positive impact on the progress of negotiations on the reduction of armed forces and armaments in that region which saw the beginning of two devastating world wars. 100. The Mongolian People's Republic was one of the sponsors of the working papers entitled Basic provisions of the declaration on disarmament and Basic provisions of the programme of action on disarmament submitted by the socialist countries to the Preparatory Committee for the Special Session of the General Assembly Devoted to Disarmament.”
1977-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 32 (1977)
“The Mongolian People's Republic holds the view that the concrete agreements achieved in the negotiations on the reduction of armed forces and armaments in central Europe would represent a tangible measure in easing the situation in the region of the confrontation of the largest military forces. 98. In the light of measures taken by NATO countries in building up armaments, the need to achieve an agreement on these questions on the basis of the principle 3 Interim Agreement on certain measures with respect to the limitation of strategic offensive arms, and protocol thereto, signed at Moscow on 26 May 1972 of ensuring equal security for all parties has become of even greater urgency, 99.”
1977-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 32 (1977)
“The conclusion of an agreement on the limitation of strategic offensive weapons would exert a favourable influence on all disarmament negotiations being held in different forums and would contribute substantially to the cessation of the nuclear arms race and to bringing about nuclear disarmament. The identical statements made by the Soviet Union and the United States regarding their willingness to continue to observe their commitments under the 1972 interim agreement,3 as well as the reports on certain progress recently achieved in bringing closer together the positions of the two Powers, have encouraged us to believe that in the near future agreements may be reached in this vital area. 97.”
1977-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 32 (1977)
“This constitutes further proof of the Soviet Union's sincere desire to contribute in every way possible to the cause of nuclear disarmament. 95. Such collateral measures as the strengthening of the IAEA safeguards with respect to transfer of nuclear materials and technology, the creation of zones genuinely free of nuclear weapons, and the complete demilitarization of the sea-bed and the ocean floor are also of great importance for the strengthening of the regime of non- proliferation of nuclear weapons and, consequently for the lessening of the risk of nuclear war. 96.”
1977-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 32 (1977)
“These measures would make it possible to put an end to the qualitative improvement of those weapons of mass destruction, to prevent the emergence of new types of such weapons. My delegation places its hopes on the negotiations for a complete and general prohibition of nuclear-weapon tests, which have begun this year between the Soviet Union, the United States and the United Kingdom, and holds the view that constructive steps in this direction would have a far- reaching positive impact. In this connexion, we should like to emphasize the great importance of the new and constructive step taken by the Soviet Union, namely, its willingness to suspend, in agreement with the United States and the United Kingdom, underground nuclear-weapon tests for a certain period of time, even before other nuclear Powers accede to the proposed treaty.”
1977-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 32 (1977)
“The proposal to consider the item deepening and consolidation of international detente and prevention of the danger of nuclear war , submitted to this session by A. A. Gromyko, Minister for Foreign Affairs of the Soviet Union, is in full conformity with the demand of the peoples of the world that effective measures be taken to stop the arms race and to bring about genuine disarmament, in particular nuclear disarmament. 94. With regard to the cessation of the nuclear arms race and nuclear disarmament, the twin task of strengthening the regime of the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons and the complete and general prohibition of nuclear-weapon tests has assumed particular urgency.”
1977-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 32 (1977)
“The countries of the socialist community have put forward constructive initiatives aimed at deepening and extending the process of detente by enhancing it through concrete measures in the field of disarmament and the development of international economic, scientific, technical and cultural co-operation on the basis of equal rights and mutual benefit. 93. This consistent course pursued by the socialist countries is explicitly confirmed by the new initiative of the Soviet Union, which focuses the attention of the world public and the United Nations on the vital problems of deepening further the process of international detente and saving humanity from the threat of a thermonuclear war.”
1977-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 32 (1977)
“Such actions are expressed primarily in the escalation of the arms race in the countries of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, in the United States of America in the first place, under the false pretext of the so-called Soviet threat , as well as in the production of new types of weapons of mass destruction such as neutron bombs and Cruise missiles. Proponents of the military-industrial complex are trying to buttress those actions by various concepts such as the concept of peace through strength , which is meant in fact to justify the unrestrained arms race. These dangerous concepts, which remind one of the military doctrines of the time of the cold war, must give way to ideas conducive to the strengthening of mutual confidence among States. 92.”
1977-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 32 (1977)
“The successful realization of the principles of peaceful coexistence among States with different social systems has made detente the prevailing trend in contemporary international life. 91. The Government of the Mongolian People's Republic believes that the principal task of both the world community and the United Nations is to consolidate that trend so as to make it a durable and irreversible process and to extend it to all parts of the world. This task has now become of particular urgency in the face of the attempts undertaken by imperialist and other reactionary forces to frustrate international detente and to return the world to the time of the cold war , to whip up war hysteria.”
1977-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 32 (1977)
“The victory over fascism and militarism with the decisive contribution of the Soviet Union and the formation and consolidation of the world socialist community have enhanced further the possibility of ensuring universal peace and developing equitable international co-operation. It is therefore no accident that the Soviet Union and other socialist countries are participating actively in the work of the United Nations, which has set itself the task of maintaining peace and international co-operation. 90. Positive developments in the restructuring of the entire system of international relations on the basis of just and democratic principles have been the result, above all, of the joint efforts of the socialist countries supported by all peace-loving and progressive forces of the world.”
1977-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 32 (1977)
“In assessing the world situation, the Government of the Mongolian People's Republic proceeds from the premise that the steady change in the correlation of forces in the international arena in favour of peace, national independence and the social progress of peoples, is the prevailing tendency in the world today. This irreversible historical process was started by the Great October Socialist Revolution, whose sixtieth anniversary is being celebrated this year by all of progressive mankind. 88. The emergence of the first socialist State, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, engendered a new type of relations based upon the principles of equality, respect for the independence and sovereignty of all countries, big and small, and of peaceful coexistence of States with different social systems. 89.”

“85. Comrade President, 1 have already had the honour of congratulating you upon your unanimous election to the presidency of the thirty-second session of the General Assembly and to wish you every possible success from the bottom of our hearts. We have also had the honour of congratulating the two new Members, the Socialist Republic of Viet Nam and the Republic of Djibouti, upon their admission to membership in the United Nations. 86. I shall begin my statement today, therefore, by simply setting forth the policy of our Government on the most important international problems. 87.”
1977-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 32 (1977)
“We believe that at the present stage the main tasks of the United Nations lie in active promotion of the consolidation of new positive trends in world development, in rendering all possible assistance to the efforts of the international community to end the arms race and to bring about measures of disarmament, and in raising the efficiency of the Organization in supporting the struggle of the peoples for peace, national independence and social progress. 250. The Mongolian People's Republic, through its efforts in both bilateral and multilateral relations, will strive to make its contribution to the attainment of the noble objectives of the United Nations Charter.”
1976-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 31 (1976)
“We believe that this statement is in keeping with the interests of the consolidation of democratic and progressive changes in world development. 248. The Mongolian delegation believes that the deepening of international detente and the increasing weight and influence of those forces which advocate international peace and co-operation have opened up for the United Nations new broad prospects for more effective implementation of the principles and purposes of its Charter. 249.”
1976-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 31 (1976)
“In these circumstances the unity of action of the developing countries in their struggle to secure their legitimate and vital interests and to strengthen their co-operation with the socialist world takes on growing significance. 247. In this connection, my delegation notes the importance of the statement in the Political Declaration of the Fifth Conference of Heads of State or Government of Non-Aligned Countries in Colombo that the non-aligned countries should continue to endeavor to co-operate with all peace-loving and progressive forces throughout the world and thus strengthen the capacity of this movement successfully to combat imperialism in its desperate efforts to recover the ground it has lost in recent years.”
1976-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 31 (1976)
“The discussions on international economic issues in the light of the needs of the developing countries at the sixth and seventh special sessions of the United Nations General Assembly and in other representative international forums under United Nations auspices have been of great significance. Important positive documents have been adopted. 245. However, the efforts of developing countries to bring about the practical implementation of the goals and principles of those documents, in particular the Declaration on the Establishment of a New International Economic Order and the Charter of Economic Rights and Duties of States, have met with stubborn resistance from a number of Western Powers which, despite their repeated promises, have taken a negative stand on problems of vital importance for the developing countries. 246.”
1976-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 31 (1976)
“The Mongolian People's Republic, along with other socialist countries, has consistently supported the just demands of the developing countries for the democratization of international economic relations inherited from the past and for the elimination of all forms of inequality, discrimination and exploitation. We believe that the transformation of present economic relations which reflect the selfish objectives of imperialist monopolies is in keeping with the interests of the social and economic development of all countries and primarily with the need to strengthen the economic independence of developing countries. 244.”
1976-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 31 (1976)
“We associate ourselves with the demand that effective measures should be taken for the complete liquidation of colonial and racial domination in Africa. 241. Colonialism and racism, as well as regimes of a Fascist type, rely on the practice of the denial and gross violation of human rights. 242. Mongolian public opinion resolutely condemns the criminal acts of the Chilean junta against the progressive and patriotic forces of Chile in flagrant violation of elementary human rights and freedoms. We associate ourselves with demands that an end be put to all these actions and that the staunch fighter for the genuine freedom and vital interests of the Chilean people, Luis Corvalart, be released along with all the other Chilean patriots and democrats languishing in the goals of the Fascist junta. 243.”
1976-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 31 (1976)
“Confronted with the prospects of the complete collapse of colonial and racist domination, the racist regimes and their imperialist protectors have been compelled to maneuver in their attempt to paralyzes the national liberation movements and to safeguard their economic and strategic interests in Africa. The Mongolian delegation is confident that the progressive forces of the African continent, enjoying wide international support, will be able to safeguard the cause of the genuine national liberation and social progress of the peoples of the southern part of Africa. The Mongolian People's Republic proceeds from the basis of recognition of the right of oppressed peoples to wage the struggle for their freedom and independence by all means at their disposal.”
1976-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 31 (1976)
“The peoples fighting for their freedom and independence have scored fresh victories, which has led to the further weakening of the position of imperialism, colonialism and racism. 239. The Angolan people won a historic victory in their struggle against the aggression launched by the South African, racists, with the direct encouragement of imperialists and other reactionary forces. This victory, achieved with the assistance of their true friends, and in the first place the socialist countries, has given a new impetus to the struggle of the peoples of Africa for the final elimination of the remnants of colonialism and racism. 240. The national liberation movements of the peoples of Zimbabwe and Namibia, as well as the indigenous people of South Africa, are becoming ever broader in scope.”
1976-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 31 (1976)
“In this regard my delegation would like to express its desire to see United Nations information media give wider coverage to important events like the recent world-wide campaign of the World Peace Council to collect signatures on the new Stockholm appeal for the cessation of the arms race and for disarmament, and the Helsinki World Conference of Public Movements for the Cessation of the Arms Race, for Disarmament and for the Relaxation of International Tension, held on 23 to 26 September this year. My delegation is convinced that the United Nations stands to gain a great deal from close links with mass movements favoring the cause of peace and international security. 238.”
1976-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 31 (1976)
“Such a conference would undoubtedly give an impetus to the preparation of concrete measures to check the arms race and promote the creation of a political climate conducive to the achievement of the goals of general and complete disarmament. 237. Before turning to another subject, I should like to emphasize that the United Nations should increasingly take into account the vigorous efforts of broad sections of the public in its efforts to strengthen peace and international security, and specifically to further the cause of curtailing the arms race and promoting disarmament. In this regard we endorse the idea expressed by the Secretary-General, Mr. Waldheim, that world public opinion should be far more actively involved in the struggle for disarmament.”
1976-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 31 (1976)
“We welcome the finalization in the Conference of the Committee on disarmament of a draft convention on the prohibition of military or any other hostile use of environ-mental modification techniques, and express the hope that this session of the General Assembly will endorse this draft convention. 234. Our Government favors the speedy adoption of effective measures in the field of the prohibition of chemical means of warfare. 235. We consider that the reduction of military expenditures and the level of armed forces of States, in particular those with large potentials, is one of the practical measures to curtail the arms race. 236. Our delegation, like those of the overwhelming majority of States, favors the convening of a World Disarmament Conference.”
1976-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 31 (1976)
“It is imperative immediately to reach a binding agreement on the prohibition of the manufacture of new types and systems of weapons of mass destruction, as has been proposed in such a timely fashion by the Soviet Union. My delegation notes with satisfaction certain positive steps in activating negotiation on this problem in the Conference of the Committee on Disarmament. Progress in the SALT talks would be a decisive contribution both in political and in technological respects to blocking the emergence of new types and systems of weapons of mass destruction. Therefore, the Mongolian People's Republic attaches particular importance to the need to convert the Vladivostok understanding on the limitation of offensive strategic armaments into a binding agreement. 233.”
1976-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 31 (1976)
“The Government of the Mongolian People's Republic regrets the lack of progress in the implementation of General Assembly resolution 3478 (XXX), which called upon all nuclear Powers to enter into negotiations not later than 31 March 1976 with a view to reaching an agreement on the complete and general prohibition of nuclear weapon tests. The major responsibility lies with those nuclear Powers which refuse to comply with the provisions of that resolution. The General Assembly should call upon those States to display a constructive approach so that the negotiations can begin as soon as possible, on the basis of the existing draft treaty. 232. In this age of intensive scientific and technological progress the task of preventing the emergency of still more dangerous means of destruction becomes a matter of ever greater urgency.”
1976-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 31 (1976)
“We hope that the General Assembly will devote special attention to this problem and will invite all States that have not yet done so to accede to or ratify without delay the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons [resolution 2373(XXII), annex], in the highest interests of preventing the threat of nuclear war. 229. The complete and general prohibition of nuclear weapon tests would constitute an effective means of preventing the further perfection of nuclear armaments. 23G. In that connection, we view as being of great importance the treaties concluded between the Soviet Union and the United States on the limitation of underground nuclear tests and on peaceful nuclear explosions. 231.”
1976-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 31 (1976)
“Such a situation clearly underlines the urgency and timeliness of the memorandum presented at this session by the Soviet delegation containing the views of the Soviet Government on urgent steps to be taken to halt the arms race and to put into effect measures of disarmament. It is our view that this memorandum is notable, inter alia, for its constructive and flexible approach to the solution of the major issues of disarmament and related matters. 228. My delegation, like many others, agrees that primary attention should be devoted to nuclear disarmament measures. To that end, effective measures must be taken in the first place to strengthen the non-proliferation regime of this weapon of mass destruction.”
1976-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 31 (1976)
“Proceeding from the above mentioned considerations, the Mongolian delegation considers timely and urgent the proposal of the Soviet delegation to include in the agenda of this session of the General Assembly on item on the conclusion of a world treaty on the non-use of force in international relations. 226. The continuing arms race not only conflicts with the interests of the deepening of the international relaxation of tension but also threatens to undermine the effectiveness of measures already agreed upon in the field of disarmament. It also obstructs the objectives of development. It has been estimated that the resources devoted to the arms race since the end of the Second World War have exceeded $6 trillion, which is roughly equivalent to the gross national product of the whole world in 1976. 227.”
1976-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 31 (1976)
“The essence of this peace pact would be the commitment of States to prevent aggression and to renounce the use of any types of weapon, including nuclear weapons, for the settlement of disputes among themselves. The conclusion of such a treaty would greatly strengthen mutual confidence among States and contribute significantly to the further deepening of international detente and to the reduction of the threat of world war. This would also represent a practical step towards the implementation of the objectives of the United Nations Charter and the historic declaration on the non-use of force in international relations and permanent prohibition of the use of nuclear weapons solemnly adopted at the twenty-seventh session of the General Assembly [resolution 2936 (XXVII)] on behalf of all Members of the. United Nations.”

“The Government of the Mongolian People's Republic believes that the positive changes which have been observed both in bilateral relations and in the multilateral efforts of the Asian States constitute a foundation upon which endeavors for ensuring lasting peace in Asia should be built. 225. Strict observance of the principle of the non-use of force in international relations is the most important prerequisite for the normalization of relations between States, thus strengthening their peaceful co-operation. My Government therefore fully supports the proposal of the Soviet Union to conclude a world treaty on the non-use of force in international relations [A) 31/243].”
1976-09-24 · UN General Assembly · General Debate, Session 31 (1976)
“The elimination of existing hotbeds of tension in Asia, a political settlement of outstanding international problems, permanent rejection of the use of force or the threat of use of force in international relations and the development of mutually beneficial co-operation between the States of the continent serve as a basis for ensuring peace and security in Asia." 222. In our view, these are the international conditions which are necessary for the successful solution of the vital socio-economic problems facing the peoples of Asia today. 223. In this context we believe that the need to ensure peace and security in Asia on a collective basis, with the participation of all the countries of the continent, is becoming particularly urgent. 224.”

“The tragic situation of crisis in Lebanon, which arose as a result of the intrigues of imperialist and Zionist forces, as well as of domestic reaction, should be resolved by the Lebanese people themselves on the basis of the preservation of the independence and territorial integrity of that country. 216. Justified anxiety has been aroused by the situation of the Korean peninsula, to which imperialist circles assign an important role in their schemes to perpetuate the division of Korea and turn its southern part into a base for aggressive encroachments. The presence of United States troops under the cover of the United Nations flag is the principle obstacle to the fulfillment of the aspirations of the Korean people for their national reunification. 217.”

The Mongolian Government considers it necessary for the work of the Geneva Peace Conference on the Middle East to be resumed as soon as possible with the participation of all the parties directly concerned, including the Palestine Liberation Organization. 215.”
