Mr. President, it is with sentiments of profound gratitude to you personally, and also to all the delegations around this table, as well as to Secretary-General Ambassador Komatina and his deputy, Ambassador Berasategui, that I can report to you of the successful completion of my delegation's consultation on the question of the mandate for agenda item 1. On behalf of my predecessor and myself, and on behalf of my delegation, I wish to express our utmost appreciation of the warm words of encouragement expressed to us on a number of occasions, and also of the generous support and understanding extended to us during the last 16 months. My statement will be far from complete without expressing also our thankfulness to the dedicated wisdom of Ambassador Vejvoda of the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic for leaving us with a very thoughtful draft text of a mandate which is no other than the one we have in front of us today. I would like to ask Ambassador Kralik to convey my delegation's appreciation and best regards to Ambassador Vejvoda.
