Assembly: A serious capitalist economic crisis plagues most parts o? the world. A11 the basic contradictions Sn the world are 1'urthQr sharpening, The trend of revelation by the people of the world is actively developing. The Asian, African and Latin American peoples. have advanced valiantly a:~d wan a series of significant victories i.n. their struggle against colonialism, imperialism and he~;emonism. do the other hand, the contention between the two superpowers far world hegemony has become mare. and more intense. The whole world is irz greater turbulence and unrest, Rhetoric about detente cannot enver up the stark reality. The danger of war is visibly growing, First of all, i,t should be painted out that the great victory ~: the three Indochinese peoples teas shaken the world. The Cambodian and Vietnamese peap7.cs have thoroughly defeated U,S, imperialism and its lackeys, thus making an important contribution to the anti-imperialist cause of the people of the world and greatly inspiring all oppressed nations and oppressed people.. Their victory 9.s a brilliant example showing that a weak nation can defeat a strong, and a small, nation can defeat a bi.g, The peoples of Asia are strongly against superpo~,?er in+,erferenec and control and against the attempt of any country to seek hegemony ~.n any part of Asia. The Southeast Asian countries want their xegion to lsecvmc a zone of peace, freedom and neutrality, free from any.form ox manner of inte-r:ie.runce by outside powers, This position of theirs has won the recogn~.tian and respr~et of an increasing number of countries. The struggle of the south Asian peoples against expansionism and hcgemonism has made riew progress.. In west Asia, longstanding disputes have been ,-e.solved by the countries concerned which excluded fareigri influence and conducted consultations on an equal footing, thus creating fa.vaurable conditions for friendly caoperatian among the countries in the region. The gulf countries arc getting unSted in the common struggle against superpower irrfiltratian and control, Tia Africa, N~zambique, (~ pe Verde, Sao Tame and Principe and the Camoras have achieved independence one after another. This is the result of their persistence in protracted struggles, particularly in protracted armed struggles, The struggle of the people of Zimbs~br~ra, Namibia and Azania against racism and white rul$ is developing in depth. The situation on the African continent is most encouraging. The struggle of the Latin .American peoples to combat imperialism and hegcmonism, safeguard state sovereignty and defend their national natural resources and economic rights and interests has continued tv surge forward, They have reinforced in various ways the ix unite in the struggle.

The unity and struggle of the Third World countries, extendir{g tram the political to the economic sphere, have ushered in a new stage in the revolutionary cause of the.p~ople oi' the world against colonialism, imperialism 'and. regemanisrn. xhe aauntrisa at the Second World have also heightened their struggle against supe~.pawer and particularly social imperialist control, intervention, subversion and threat oP farce." The trend among the Wast European countries to get united against hegemonism has aantinued to grow. The Second World has increased its dialogue and contacts frith the Third Waxld. Such cooperation will doubtless have goad prospects far development as Long as it is based on mutual respect for sovereignty and equality. The contention between the two superpowers, the United States and the Soviet Union,. e7rtahds to all parts of the Kaxld. They axe intensifying their stripe in Stu?ope, the Mediterranean, the Middle Bast, 'the Pexsian (~ulP, the Indian dcean, the Paoitie, the Atlantic, Asia, Afr3~ca and Latin America. Strategically, Europe is the focus of their contention. Social-imperialism is making a feint to the Bast while attaching in the West. Th1s was revealed, rather than covered up, by the Conference an Security and Cooperation in Eux~ape. The two superpowers do reach some agreements from time to time, but these only erect a facade, behind ~rhich they are engaged in bigger and fiercer cnntentian. Take for example the agreement in principle reached at the U.S.-Soviet summit meeting last Nawember ort.the limitation oi' strategic offensive arms. This agreement only sets a numerical limit. on the arms in question, which exceeds the amount each side possesses at the moment, while qualitatively it sets no limit at all. It is evident, therefore, that such an agrtsemant should more appropriately be called an agreement nn strategic arms expansion rather than an agreement a? strategic arms limitation. Facts are at hand to prove this. Since the signing of this agreement, the United States and the Soviet tfiion have bath stepped uP their development and d2ployr~ent oP new-type strategic ..arms, oath trying haxd to overpower the other. Ot late, the Soviet Union has made use of the conclusion of the European Socurity Conforenae to turn out mush propaganda alleging that detento has progressed to a new stage, This is shetr deceptive talk. We are aware oP the eager desire far security vn the part of the marry srm;ll and medium countries which participated in that canferonce. W+e arc also a~.are that they have na illusions about its agreements which have nn binding farce. What security, let alone detente,.. is therm to speak of wt~n grope a^emains in the pro- longed state o$ tense armed canirontatian? While chanting "peace and security" ~n the conferonce hall, the Soviot Union made waves to aggravate tension outside. xt not only eancentriated a~ssive military farces and carried out unbridled provocations in the seas of noxthez~ i5urope and the Mediterranean, but also brazenly stretched its tentacles to the xaerie~n Peninsula. Such deeds of expansion coupled Kith words oP detente are a huge rraakery oP the Eua^apean Security Conference. From its inception we considered the European'S.eeurity Corzf'erence a European insecurity conference. Nnw that this canterenee has ended, is there greater?sscurity in Europa? In our view, no. Tt has not altered the basic situation in Europe in the least. xf one should be so naive as to belie~re in the Soviet propaganda, that would be dangerous indeed.

II, The Korean Question The independent atxd peaceful reunification of Korea is th.e common aspiration of the entire Korean pgap:le. Oyer the years the I?emJocratic Feapl~:'s Republic of Korea has gout forward many ~easanabla proposals and pra?rositinns for tt.. p~ceful reunification of the fatherland. Thanks to its initiative, an aSreemert was reached with the South Korean authorities in 29'72 an tht three principles for independenHaaw~er~Korea remainsr cation, which w~Dhe affirmed by the UAF ixeneral Assembly ~~dlb7''the United States. hay divide,3 today. because the Pak Chang=hui clique, suppors.. y abandoned these principles and sabotaged the north-south talks. Under the impact of the Great victory o~ the Indochinese peoples this year U. S. nperia'ism became finicky. It en~~3v~ssly repeated the myth of a so-called "t~deli- af a southward irtvasian fray t' - north" concocted by tre Pak Chang-hui clique. tswrately payed up the tN.,':'~n ?:-n the Karmen P+:.ainsula an~3 erer- d'clared that it would not hesitate to use nucl~~w^ weapons there.

As a matter of fact, that was much ado aboue nothing. It is new clear that the Unitt!d State; and the Pa'~c ChonH-hui clique have acted in this way merely to create a pretext and deceive the people of the world sa that U. S, traopss may han~5 an in South Korea and the division oi' Korea may b2 perpetuated.. If there is a dar~;er of war on the Korean Peninsula. it Can only originate frnm the South Korean authorities that constantly clamour for "reunification by prevailing over communism,,` and absolutely' root from the i;e;:wrratic Pepple's Republic of .Korea which inststs nn independent and peaceful reuni- ficatian. The draft resolution on Karma submitted by the LTnited States. ,japan and other Gauntries this year claims a "3n'eparednass" to terminate the YJnited Nations command. ~ viously, is no mention at all of the wit2xdrawal of foreign troops from South I~rea. its purpose is, under the cover of terminatit~ the UN command, to legalize the presence of U.S. troops in South Korea and create "two KorA.as."

Clearly, such a drai"t resolution can by ro nears lead to a peace:uu.l s~;ttleraextt of the Korean question, rno matter haw nicely it is ~rnrdea, It is absolutely unacceptable to us? We love consistextt].y held that the Korean question should be settled by the Korean, people themselves tree Prom ar~r outside iazterterenne. The draft resolution an Korea submitted by Algeria, China and other countries proposes that the United Nations command be dissolved and ai.l the foreign troops stationed in South Korea uxader the flag aP the United Nations be withdrawn, and that the Korean armistice agreemext be replaced with a peace agreement signed by the real patties to tk7e armistice agreement. Tt also puts forward a.series at positive measures to remove tension, between North and South Korea, prevent armed conflicts and prormts the normalization of the situation. This proposal is entirely Just and reasonable. It not onnly meets the eager des~.re o? the entire ktoreat-people but is canducfve to the fundamental improvemernt of the situation of the Korean Penimsula and in northeast Asia. The CTnited. Nations command mast be dissolved. .From the day of its formation it has been. illegal. atsd a tool of U.S, aggression. In fact, it has become a U,S, nomtnand.long since, xowever, the dissolution of the L'N corusand must be coupled with the withdrawal vP all the Foreign troops fxom South Korea, Fbr What tirauld be the point of merely changing the name while keeping everythlxxg else irstact? Continued presence of U.S, troops in South Korea .under whatever name nantravenes the principles of the indeperulextt and peaceful reunification of Karen and will. only aggravate the tension obi the Korean Peninsula. Z'he question of withdrawal of al]. the foreign troops from Korea sY,auld have 'been discussed and, settled withl.n 3 months after the signizag ai the Korean armistice agreement. xhis has been delayed far no lass tksan 22 years because at obstructions planed by successive Ataeriean administrations. And 17 pears have passed since the Chinese Peaple~s Volunteers withdrew oa their awn initiative from the T3emocratic k'eapleis Republic of Korean to facilitate a peaceful settlement of the Korean questzo,ns, I+tow there are no foreign troops in North Korea, but U,S, troops stial hang an in South Korea, Far how cuch longer does tk2e United States intend to prolong such a state of affairs. Korea cannot remain forever in a state of armistice. The U,S, representatives idea for the United States azxd the'Snuth Korean authorities to propose to the parties aF the armistice the convening of a nonterence to discuss ways to preserve the agreement has been in ex3atence for 22 years, and how mach longer will it be preserved2 Maxeaver, as is IGnnwn to all, the parties of the'KoreaA armistice agreement Z}ave in fact changed a great dual, The Chinese Peaple~s V'aluxiteers withdrew Prom Korea long ago. Most co~otaents aP the United Nativz~s command have dispersed and evaporated into thin, air, So how can such a confererane be converted? As for the exploration at such a conference of the possibility at a larger oonferernne to negotiate a mare fundamental arrangement, is it not even maze iapractical? A3'ter the armistice in 1953r under the provisions of the armistice agreeros~xt a political conference of a higher level should have been held to settle the Korean question. kiowever, owing to .sabotage by the United States, even its. prelimixnaxy talks failed to protluce~ any result, Subsequently in 1g54, the Korean and Chinese sides ~a.de tremendous efforts in Geneva to urge the convening of a political afnPerertne of a higher level. in the hope that ~ peaceful settlement of the Korean question could be realized. At the time, the U,S, representative, stubbox~tily"-.and arbitrarily clinging, to his orm course,' wezst so tar as to re,ftise to reapers arm discussions an the Korean qusstion in the future, Thus, the United states singlehandedly slammed the door to a politic~xl. ea~1.f'erence on the Koren question.

No Objection to Declassification in Full 2010/10/01 : LOC-HAK-112-7-9-0 A ~ ~NT~R.'dA'!'~NAL AFFAIRS 7xs the actual. circurr~tances at present, the practical way is for the real parties to the I[orean armistice agreement to negotiate and sign a peace agreement to replace try armistice agreement. The facts over. the past two decades and proves moxe that G,S. itYteryerence in Korea is the root cause of coxzstartb tensions in Korea. Therefore, the key to a peaceY'ttl settlement of the Korean question lies in the conclusion of a peace agreement to replace the armistice agreement and in t2:e withdrawal of all i1.5. troops. The iTnited States asserts that as there is na normal international bau>7dary between t3orth and South Korea, the armistice agreement and the demilitarized zone stipulated therein abso2iste).y mast not be ehar>,ged. We cannot accept this view. Korea is only in a state aP te'Mporary division.

It is groundless to assert. that a war' will break out tan Korea in ttbe absence of the armistice agreement. The Chinese delagatian maisxraixsa that the draft resolution an Aorea sponsored by Algeria and other cuurstries is one that can solve the problem. ode hope that the current session of the S#enera]. Assembly will seriously considel* and adopt this draft resolution? IIT. The. Middle East Question, Since the October war. the Diddle East has reverted to a state of "no war, no peace." This is the result of the fierce and many-sided contention between the two superpowers carried an aga.3nst the will of the APdb and Palestinian peoples. I~aa,rin$ this period, disengagement agreements were signed between Egypt and Tsrael and between Syria and Cereal. Recently, a second disengagement agreement has beers signed by Egypt and Xsrael. Nevertheless, the Middle East question is far S'ra,n beixsg settled. Tt is mainly fnr the two superpowers that are to be held responsible far this state of affairs~? Tn the 2 years since the Qctober war, one superpower proposed a "comprehensive solution; and the other a "stein-by~step solution" of the Middle East question, each trying hard to boost itself and denigrate the others and masquerade as a friend of the i~rab and Palestinian peoples? Tel Pact, while the United States has zxa intexstian of bringing about a thorough settlemexst Anf tl~e Middle East question, the Soviet Un3.oan is still less inclined to do so. Tt may be recalled that when the October war in th+ f~.dd].e East was at its mast critical ,puncture and thereafter,' the Soviet Union withheld the shipment at arms already promised to Egypt and even pressed fox tk>'ee repayment vz debts. Haw can one expect such a perfidious country ,to support in earnest the Arab people in their dust 'struggle far the recovery of the lost territiries and the xestaratian of the Palestinian national rights?
