and that further bold and creative measures will be necessary to complete it, the Secretary-General has correctly defined the scope and the impact of the measures adopted thus far by the South African régime and has expressed the international consensus. These measures, although encouraging, respond only partially to the conditions set by the General Assembly in its Declaration of 14 December 1989 and must be followed by more concrete and bolder measures. The international community, which has solemnly committed itself to the total eradication of apartheid, cannot therefore be satisfied with these measures, nor can it feel convinced that profound and irreversible changes are really under way in South Africa. Such a development in any event, at this critical stage of the evolution of the situation in South Africa, could not warrant a weakening of international sanctions. Thus, the international community, which has mapped the route which must be taken for the establishment of an era of peace and justice in South Africa, must mobilize its action and maintain its pressure until the legitimate rights of the South African people are fully restored and the conditions exist for the BCT/at A/44/PV.97 48 (Mr. Djoudi. Algeria) achievement of a democratic and non-racial society based on the free exercise by all of universal suffrage, in a united and unfragmented South Africa. That is the hope of all of us; that is our shared objective. Mr. TRAXLER (Italy): Allow me at the outset, Mr. President, to express my delegation's satisfaction that this resumed forty-fourth session also is taking place under your stewardship. Indeed, your presidency augurs well for the success of our work. Nothing could be more fitting than to see a most distinguished son of Africa presiding over this part of the forty-fourth session, dedicated to the problem of apartheid. 
**Analysis**
The text appears to be a diplomatic statement or a report discussing the situation in South Africa, specifically addressing the issue of apartheid. The language used is formal and diplomatic, with a focus on the international community's stance and the need for further action to achieve a democratic and non-racial society.
