be taken by the international community in the 1990s to cope with the most urgent global economic problems and to address issues influencing economic growth and development throughout the world. This framework would be determined according to the nature of the problems to be dealt with by future international conferences held under United Nations auspices. Therefore, we favour the adoption of a readable action-oriented final document which would reflect this view. It should respond to the prevailing development tendencies in today's world and have a topical political appeal to both developed and developing countries, thereby stimulating the development of international economic co-operation. It should underscore the exceptional role_ of the United Nations as a universal forum for the solution to international economic questions as regards, in particular, the integration of national economies into the world economy, the development of multilateralism in economic relations, the complementary character of national economic policies and their 1i nkage with international decisions. We believe that the session will give a new, strong impulse to the revitalization of international economic co-operation. Let us do our best to rise to this unique opportunity. Mr. EJIGU (Ethiopia): This important session is marked by a historic event of great significance which has ushered in a new era for both Namibians and the United Nations. We are delighted to see independent Namibia assume its rightful place in the community of sovereign nations as the 160th Member of our Organization. For us Ethiopians, who have had the privilege of being associated from the beginning with the question of Namibia and its struggle on the diplomatic front, this is a proud moment that fills us with great joy. On behalf of the Government and the people of Ethiopia, it gives me great pleasure to congratulate JSM/ad A/S-18/PV. 6 72 (Mr. Ejigu; Ethiopia) 
**Analysis**
The text discusses the importance of international economic cooperation and the role of the United Nations in addressing global economic problems and promoting economic growth and development. It also mentions the admission of Namibia as the 160th member of the United Nations, which suggests that the text may be related to international relations or diplomacy. However, the focus on economic issues and the call for international cooperation suggest that the text is more closely related to economic development.
