text: to the United Nations Conference on the Environment and Development to be held in Brazil in 1992. We must spare no effort in working to protect our planet and to ensure a better environment for present and future generations. RH/11 A/S-18/PV.4 49 (Mr. Alkhader, Yemen) The holding of this special session is most timely and provides us with a unique opportunity to promote dialogue and i111ternational economic co-operation. It is an opportunity to find just and equitable solutions to the debt crisis and the means to ensure adequate financial transfers to developing countries in order to safeguard the right of every country to obtain financing from whatever source, with no strings attached. Our aim should be to help developing countries achieve their objective of sustained and equitable development by providing them with access to international markets, stimulating regional co-operation and promoting the transfer of technologies. The special session should focus on the promotion of international and regional economic co-operation, the co-ordination of international economic policies &signed to take a common approach t:o laying the foundations for a stable international monetary and financial system, an integrated world economy, an equitable trade system and promoting the development of the human resources of developing countries, which is an issue closely connected with international economic growth and sustainable development. The session must also examine directives to promote international economic co-operation and multilateralism, including the co-ordination of macro-economic policies in keeping with the POlicies and objectives of development. Progress is lacking in efforts to reform the international monetary and financial system and to restructure it viably so that it can meet the needs of developing countries for progress. Such progress is a prerequisite of international co-operation. The two parts of Yemen support the proposals on the International Conference 
analysis: The text focuses on the promotion of international economic cooperation, sustainable development, and the needs of developing countries, highlighting the importance of addressing the debt crisis, financial transfers, and technology transfers. While there is no explicit mention of natural resources or the environment, the overall goal of protecting the planet and ensuring a better environment for future generations suggests a connection to environmental issues.
