Mr. MAKSIMOV (Byelorussian Soviet Socialist Republic), speaking on behalf of the sponsors of draft resolution E/ 1986/L.23/Rev .1, said that they had made considerable compromises and had deleted nearly all the provisions which had given rise to objections. They had agreed to delete the first, fourth and sixth preambular paragraphs, most of paragraph 1-which would then read "Supports the proclama­ tion by the General Assembly of 1986 as the Interna­ tional Year of Peace" -and paragraph 4. They hoped that the Council would be able to adopt the draft resolution by consensus. 22. Mr. STIRLING (United States of America) recalled that his proposals had been that all the preambular paragraphs save the seventh should be deleted, that paragraph 1 should end with the words "International Year of Peace" and that paragraphs 4, 5 and 6 should be deleted. His delegation stood by all those proposals. **Resumed from the 16th meeting. 90 Economic and Social Council-First Regular Session, 1986 23.

analysis: The text appears to be discussing a resolution related to international relations and diplomacy, specifically regarding the adoption of a draft resolution in the Economic and Social Council. The language used is formal and diplomatic, with references to previous meetings and compromises made by the sponsors of the resolution. The topic seems to be more related to international cooperation and governance than to specific sectors or industries.
