reducing the military activities of the big Powers and blocs outside their boundaries. It is hoped that this view will find expression in the relevant resolutions that will be adopted by the General Assembly. Tactical nuclear weapons are deployed all over the world, and their concentration is particularly intensive in the European region. Despite all the appeals contained in resolutions of the General Assembly, these weapons have not A/C.l/40/PV.4 34-35 (Mr. Golob, Yugoslavia) yet become a subject of negotiations. The ongoing negotiations between the two super-Powers should encompass the subject of tactical nuclear weapons as well. We feel that negotiations on this subject should be started without delay. Resolute efforts should be made with a view to completing negotiations urgently on a comprehensive convention on chemical weapons. This would provide an important incentive both for the total banning of other weapons of mass destruction and for their final elimination. It would be of particular importance to ensure that new technological achievements were not used for the development of new types and systems of weapons of mass destruction. While halting the nuclear-arms race should be our primary concern, it is necessary to undertake appropriate measures for halting the arms race in conventional weapons as well. The arms race in conventional weapons has been developing at a faster and faster pace, particularly between countries with the largest military arsenals.

We should like these views to find a place in the draft resolutions to be submitted.

**Analysis**
The text appears to be discussing global issues related to peace, security, and disarmament, with a focus on reducing the military activities of powerful nations and blocs, as well as negotiating the elimination of weapons of mass destruction. While it does not explicitly mention economic development, it does mention the potential for "resources released" to be used for development purposes. This suggests that the text is more focused on international relations and security than on specific economic or social issues.
