Conference has not yet started truly and fully to use them. What is the reason for this state of affairs? The question is a perfectly legitimate one and is of concern to all of those who are not indifferent to the problems of the day. But asking it is easier than answering it. Of course, one could look for culprits; that is always so to speak, the easy way out. We have our opinion on this score and so, no doubt, do others, and their view does not necessarily coincide with ours. However, such a search would probably be an exercise in futility. And it would hardly bring us any closer to accomplishing the task of enhancing the efficiency of our forum. What is important is that there is now virtually consensus that this task - the task of enhancing efficiency - must be performed. And that, no doubt, requires looking at the problem in a broader context and trying first of all to determine the Conference's place in the process of disarmament in general. The complexity of the problems that we have to solve stems from the fact that we are a multilateral forum dealing with global disarmament. Furthermore, tremendous differences can be seen not only between States' interests but also between the concrete situations in various regions. Here it is particularly hard to find common denominators. This is an objectively difficult task and it cannot be fully accomplished by remaining within the framework of the problem of disarmament, for disarmament - particularly global disarmament - is not an isolated process. Here there are bound up into one bundle both the problems of regional conflicts and such global "sore points" as development strategy, prevention of the spread of technologies facilitating the development of nuclear or chemical weapons, missiles or other arms, and 
**Analysis**
The text appears to be discussing a conference or forum focused on disarmament, which is a complex issue that involves multiple countries and regions with different interests and situations.

This suggests that the text is not primarily focused on a specific economic or environmental issue, but rather on a political or diplomatic one.
