  1. “For no sensible person can deny that the time which separates us from the most ferocious of wars, the time during which it proved possible to avert a global conflict, has brought much good to the nations of all continents. Indeed, would it have otherwise been possible to pursue the policy of active peaceful coexistence of States with different political systems and to continue detente and extensive cooperation between them? Would the social progress achieved in many States have been possible? Would the entire process of decolonization and of the economic development of many regions of the world have proved feasible? 63. The positive impact upon European relations of the process of constructive transformations between East and West, especially in the past decade, can hardly be denied.”

  2. “Our Polish experience of history and the vital interests of all nations generate a desire that the world follow a road based on peaceful coexistence, strengthening of mutual understanding and just, equitable cooperation and on the implementation of the noble, humanistic purposes of the Charter of the United Nations. It cannot, however, be based on the escalation of dangerous and costly armaments, the incitement of mutual distrust and the creation of ever new tensions. 62. We firmly believe that, despite pressures brought to bear by imperialism, the world will choose the road of peaceful development. We are fortified in this conviction by the positive experience and achievements of the years that have passed.”

  3. “The sources of evil include, moreover, all vestiges of colonialism and neo-colonial forms of domination and interference and the practice of apartheid and various forms of racism and racial discrimination, which continue to breed tensions not only on a regional but also on a global scale. 60. The economic difficulties, and the energy problems in particular, which the world is now experiencing, combined with policies of protectionism, differences in the level of economic development and mounting demographic problems, are further important indicators of the present state of the world. 61. Many statesmen believe that mankind has come to a crossroads.”

  4. “They include the struggle for the peace and security of the nations of Europe and of the world, the consolidation of detente and the development of comprehensive international cooperation. 58. We have been witnessing lately numerous threats and tensions in international relations. Their underlying causes are varied and complex. Together with our allies, we have been pointing out for years—and, last May, we most forcefully reaffirmed this in the declaration of States parties to the Warsaw Treaty —that the main threat to peace and detente lies in the arms race, encouraged as it is by cold war circles and by military and industrial complexes, and in the attempts to revive a policy based on a position of strength. 59.”

  5. “Precisely such a Poland, an important factor of stabilization and peace in Europe, will continue to be fully committed to its role of co-maker of permanent security on our continent and an active contributor to efforts towards peaceful and equitable cooperation throughout the world. Such a Poland is and will remain a consistent advocate of a broad dialogue and many-sided cooperation with States having different socio-political systems, on the basis of the record so far accomplished in this field, in keeping with the principles of peaceful coexistence. 57. We come to the present session faithful to the principles and purposes on which Poland's foreign policy has invariably been based throughout the entire post-war period.”

  6. “We tackle and solve them with all openness and consideration, within the framework of what constitutes our nation's indisputable record of accomplishment, in accordance with our principles, our political system and the socialist rule of law, in the name of consolidating the unity of the people in the effort for the common good. 56. Our independent existence, sovereign development and lasting security are inseparably bound up with the strengthening of socialist Poland, which is linked through friendship and alliance with the Soviet Union and is a strong component of the community of socialist States.”

  7. “We assess them in the context of our entire post-war development, in the perspective of the 35 years which have passed since the victory over Nazism, paid for dearly with irreplaceable lives, and since the emergence of the People's Republic of Poland. During that period, through a gigantic effort of our people, we have rebuilt our country from the ravages of war, entered the road towards the all-embracing progress of our homeland, ensured full employment for all our citizens and created universal and free access to education at all levels, to culture and to health care. 55. In the complex process of our socioeconomic development, we have not escaped difficulties, whether objective or subjective.”

  8. “We wish the new States every success in building their respective statehoods and in their socioeconomic development. 53. Each year the interval between the sessions of this august forum brings new phenomena, new issues and new experiences in the life of individual nations and of the entire international community. We are meeting here, among the representatives of 154 States, in order to draw appropriate conclusions from them. These conclusions must first and foremost be consistent with the purposes which we have ourselves enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations— the maintenance of peace, the strengthening of international security and the establishment of conditions for the creative development of all nations. 54. The recent past has brought profound experiences to the people of Poland.”

  9. “Salim Ahmed Salim, the outgoing President of the General Assembly, who used all his talents, dedication and efficiency in guiding its work. 51. As always, we follow with appreciation the tireless and dedicated activity of the Secretary General of the Organization, Mr. Kurt Waldheim, and the efforts he makes with a view to solving complex international problems. 52. We are pleased to be able to welcome in our midst today the newly admitted State, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. May we also reiterate how much we rejoice at the birth of a newly independent State in Africa, Zimbabwe. Their accession to independence and unanimous admission to the Organization mark further progress in the great historic process of decolonization, of which Poland was and continues to be a consistent proponent.”

  10. “Please accept our warm congratulations, Mr. President, on your election to the presidency of the thirty-fifth session of the General Assembly. In sharing in the assurances of appreciation of your own merits, achievements and experience that have been addressed to you from this rostrum, I should like, as representative of Poland, to underscore your personal contribution to the preparation of the process of normalization and development of relations between the Polish People's Republic and the Federal Republic of Germany. We join in the good wishes already expressed that, under your Presidency, the present session will bring about propitious and beneficial results. 50. We convey our feelings of high esteem and gratitude to Mr.”
