There is every ground to hope that it will be possible to com- plete the work begun without unwarranted delays and to hold the concluding’ stage of the con- ference at summit level before the end of the year,” the Izves- tia writer believes. “This pros- pect is quite realistic,” he says. “One cannot but feel concern- ed in connection with the efforts of some Western quarters to solve certain important ques- tions on the agenda of the All- European forum to the detriment of the national interests of other states, by damaging their sov- ereignty,” Grigoryants. writes. “One cannot be satisfied with the speed of the consideration of problems contained in the so- called ‘third basket’ either,” he says. “The thing is that some persons would like to use coop- analy The experience of the last three General Assemblies, how- ever, showed that the Chinese diplomats failed to enlist the support of any considerable num- ber of the UN member states. Contrary to their expectations, the majority of countries, includ- ing the developing ones, sup- ported the idea of a world con- ference. To “save face,” the Chi- nese representatives had_ to manoeuvre, advance all kinds of reservations and eventually re- gister a “yes” vote for the pro- posed resolutions. Life showed, however, that these hypocritigal moves served only to camou- flage the obstructionist tactics of the Chinese leadership. For instance, at the sitting of the first- committee of the General Assembly on November 6 last year, the Chinese representative Wang Ming-Hsiu announced that unless China’s demands were met, she would neither participate in the conference nor in any dis- cussion about its convocation. This ultimatum was addressed to the two “Superpowers”, meaning the USSR and the USA. The first demand was for the USSR and the USA to take an obligation “never and under any circumstances to be the first to. use nuclear weapons.” The sec- ond demand related to dismantl- ing “all military bases, includ- ing nuclear ones, set up on fore- ign soil,” and also to withdrawal of armed forces from foreign countries. As far as the Soviet Union is concerned, it practical- ly took an obligation not to use nuclear weapons before the Chinese representative’s speech. Is it not evidenced by the fact that the General Assembly ap- proved the Soviet-proposed re- sclution on the non-use of force eration in humanitarian fields for eroding the ideological foun- dations of the socialist countries. Cynical Offer “Some western press organs cynically offer a barter, the es- sence of which was frankly for- mulated by the New York Times, which demanded that the social- ist countries pay for the suc- cessful completion of the All- European Conference with con- siderable changes in the Soviet system!” The Izvestia commentator points to the absurdity of such ul- timatums. Of course, there are still many other difficulties in Ge- neva. The main thing, he asserts, is that all prerequisites have al- ready been created for the suc- cessful completion of its third stage in .1974. “The peoples of Europe,” writes Grigoryants, “have great hope for the work of the con- ference, which has become, the main component :of the Euro- pean reality cf today. - “No events,” he concludes, “even the most dramatic deve- lopments, such as the Middle East war of last October or the current Cyprus crisis, can put the work of the conference in question. It is rather the other way round, they only fur- ther emphasize the importance of its successful completion for ensuring security in Europe and elsewhere. isarmament in international: relations and banning for all times the applic- ation of nuclear weapons? , It was only the representatives of China and some reactionary re- gimes that dissociated them- selves from this resolution. As we see, from the very beginning, the solution of the question of banning nuclear weapons has de- pended not on the Soviet Union but on those who opposed and are opposing any moves tow- adrs the limitation of nuclear weapons. Above all, this concerns the Chinese leadership, which has refused to sign practically all international agreements on-nu- clear disarmament. A world disarmament confer- ence can and must consider dis- mantling military bases, with- drawal of troops from foreign territories and other questions. But a conference would be hard- ly needed if these problems were so easy and simple to solve as Peking makes it appear. It is needed: because the prob- lems of disarmament concern not a narrow circle but all coun- tries without exception. That is why the General Assembly de- cided to convene it and formed a committee for its preparation. The Chinese leadership, how- ever, bluntly declares that it will not cooperate with this body. The behaviour of the Chin- ese diplomats, from advancing demands to the sabotage of the preparatory committee’s work, indicates that all that Mao Tse- Tung and his hangers-on are interested in is talk about dis- armament and not a disarma- ment conference which could work out effective decisions binding on the participants.
