text: conclusions of the Conference on Economic Co-operation in Europe, recently held in Bonn, which help create a favourable international environment in support of the reforms in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe. As far as mv country is concerned, I should like to underline that its present transition from a rigid, centrallY Planned economy to a market-oriented one JP/ASW A/S-18/PV. 6 68 (Mr. Pirek, Czechoslovakia) pursues, above all, nedium-term and long-term development objectives. It is in this spirit that we hope both to meet the aspirations of Czechs and Slovaks and to take an active patrt in the solution of global economic problems, including those of the developing world. Every country should first rely on its own capacity to deal with its economic situation. We believe that for developing countries, whose social and economic problems we are considering here, foreign assistance cannot be regarded as a panacea. Rather, it is a supplementary factor which should stimulate the developing countries' own efforts to revitalize their development. Moreover, it cannot be effective unless the countries receiving such assistance pursue an appropriate national economic policy, which, in turn, requires that emphasis be laid on the mobilization of human resources, on the integration of the human factor in adjustment Programmes and on respect for the environmental aspects of development. The generation of a favourable international economic environment is an important prerequisite for the implementation of the development strategy of developing countries and for their integration into the international division of labour. The developed countries have a special responsibility in this respect. The specific nature of the problems confrontinq the developing countries must be taken into account if a sound policy aimed at constant development is to be PJrsued in the field of international economic relations. Increased attention in this regard must be paid to the economically least developed countries. 
analysis: The text primarily discusses the economic development and international cooperation aspects of the Conference on Economic Co-operation in Europe, with a focus on the transition of Central and Eastern European countries to market-oriented economies. It also touches on the importance of foreign assistance, national economic policy, and the integration of developing countries into the international economy. The text does not mention specific sectors such as agriculture, industry, or transport, but rather addresses the broader themes of economic development, international cooperation, and sustainable development.
