text: towards the establishment of one single trade organization that would be more universal in its rnemebership, more integral in its responsibilities and more effective in its functions, as was indeed considered more than 40 years ago at the Havana Conference. JB/21 A/S-18/PV. 3 99-100 (Mr. Figueredo Planchart, Venezuela) One key area of development, that of science and technology, must be the object in the first place of a true effort to strengthen integration among our developing countries. Without projects of a certain scope and significance, such as those that Europe decided to put forward with EUREKA and the European Organization for Nuclear Research, the strategy for the collective development of our countries will have only a partial effect and certainly will not place us as regions in a position to respond to the real challenges. The high degree of our countries' technological dependence, and the deepening of the technological disequilibrium between the minority and the majority of mankind, must strike a new balance. BHS/ad A/S-18/PV. 3 101 (Mr. Figueredo Planchart, Venezuela) In this respect, the preservation of natural resources should be placed among the national priorities to which our sientists and technological research should respond. Industrialized countries will surely find it in their interest to provide technical and economic resources, including free access to available scientific information and knowledge of new non-polluting technologies. If we determine to initiate a constructive process for a world which has become a small world, as we observe the formidable events brought about by East-West detente, we can achieve surprising results for the well-being of our peopies. The meeting rose at 1.30 p.m.
