country's delegation, I should like at the outset to express our qreat pleasure at seeing Mr. Garba Presiding over the eighteenth special session of the General Assembly devoted to international economic co-operation, in particular the JB/20 A/S-18/PV. 4 92 (Mr. Salah, Jordan) revitalization of economic qrowth and development of the developinq countries. We are confident that his able stewardship, which marked the conduct of the work of the forty-fourth session and the seventeenth special session, will quide this special session to fruitful results. I should also like to thank the Secretary-General, Mr. Javier Perez de Cuellar, for his efforts towards the preParation of this session and for his invaluable report contained in document A/AC.233/5. I take this opportunity to express mv warm conqratulations to the deleqation of the Republic of Namibia on the occasion of its admission to the Orqanization. The resolution adopted by the General Assembly to admit Namibia as a new Member of the United Nations is testimony of the recoqnition and admiration of the valiant people of Namibia, which has underqone untold sufferinqs in its lonq struqqle for freedom. We are delighted to see our colleaques, the members of the Namibian delegation, taking their rightful place among us. We pledge to continue our support and co-operation for the cause of Namibia. This special session is convened in a climate of international relaxation that has a highly favourable impact on the political aspects of international relations. This encourages us to make serious efforts to promote similar change in world economic conditions, not only because those conditions are unacceptable in themselves, but because that kind of adjustment would be beneficial to all countries of the world. In that context, the international community should, we believe, make economic development the focus of international co-operation, not only within the framework
