  1. “May I also be permitted to salute, on behalf of the Government and people of Togo, Solomon Islands, which we welcome in our midst as the one hundred and fiftieth Member of our Organization. 299. This year again the world views with anxiety the recrudescence of the points of crisis in the world. Security, peace and co-operation are again threatened, and the international community stands helpless before the evils that beset it. In its disarray it turns its eyes towards our Organization. 300. The United Nations must rediscover the necessary resources, the indispensable impetus, that will help it remember the causes of the many convulsions tearing our contemporary world asunder.”

  2. “The Togolese delegation will collaborate in the accomplishment of this exalting but difficult task. 296. The outgoing President, Mr. Lazar Mojsov, imparted a high decorum to the debates of the thirty-second regular session and the three special sessions that followed. He showed in full measure his competence as the accomplished diplomat that we all know him to be. That is why I wish to take this opportunity to convey to him our most heartfelt congratulations. 297. Allow me also to tender to Mr. Kurt Waldheim the congratulations of the Togolese Government on his unremitting efforts and ceaseless endeavours for peace in the world, where, regrettably, dangerous hotbeds of tension still exist. We pay to the Secretary-General our sincere tribute for his highly commendable action. 298.”

  3. “By entrusting to him the burdens and responsibility of conducting its work, the General Assembly has sought to pay a tribute both to his abilities as a consummate diplomat and, through him, to his country and his distinguished President, who has succeeded in a short time in forging the destiny of his people and in transforming man's creative freedom into continued incitement to integration of the country's productive forces, and who continues to play a positive and important role in the international arena m the constant search for peace, unity and solidarity among the peoples of the world and in the relations among States. 295. Therefore, we are proud to affirm our conviction that the General Assembly's present deliberations will have a happy outcome.”

  4. “The thirty-third session of the General Assembly of our Organization opens at a time when the representatives gathered here in full solemnity focus the thoughts they voice on the vital issues disrupting the world today. 293. The Togolese delegation has come, as in the past, to make a positive contribution to those ideas. 294. Before proceeding further, I should like, however, to avail myself of the opportunity afforded by this lofty rostrum to congratulate Mr. Li6vano most warmly on his election to the presidency of the thirty-third session of the General Assembly.”

  5. “290. for 30 years the nations have been sending their representatives to meet in this palatial building, which has, as a rest' , become a place for dialogue and discussion among men of goodwill in the quest for peace in political affairs, unity in the struggle against hunger and malnutrition, solidarity in the distribution of the wealth of the world which has, alas, become the close field of war, egotism and division. 291. The international community, today as yesterday, is unfortunately confronted with tests of every kind, and the purpose of our gathering is to search for solutions to crises dangerously threatening peace and security in the world. 292.”
