complemented in many cases by additional measures. The strateqies set in motion rightly aim above all at restoring the solvency of the indebted countries. They have brought appreciable results, but these have not always been sufficient. The debtor countries arrl private arrl public creditors must therefore continue their quest for solutions adapted to each situation and maintain a spirit of innovation. The fourth challenqe has to do with continued liberalization of trade. Such a liberalization is at the same time an important instrument in adjusting economies, and therefore better allocation of resources, and a quarantor aqainst protectionist pressures. The place occupied by developing countries in international economic relations will depend larqelv on their ability to use international trade as a powerful enqine of growth. The potential for the expansion of trade depends on the maintenance and strengthening of an open multilateral system. The response to this fourth challenge is now taking shape in the framework of the Uruguay Round at the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT). These negotiations have for the first time taken up subjects other than the exchanqe of JVM/32 A/S-18/PV. 4 154-155 (Mr. Blankart, Switzerland) goods.

Among the central themes of the negotiation, that of the full integration of the developing countries into the world economy is a growing concern to Switzerland. That integration cannot, however, take place unless the developing countries gradually assume all obligations of the system. An outcome of the Uruguay Round taking into account all interests of the parties involved, including the developing countries, would provide a formidable enqine for qrowth in the 1990s.
