text: impossible at present to reach such a really "zero" solution, it would be expedient to pursue the course of a radical reduction of medium-range nuclear weapons in Europe on the basis of the princi­ ple of equality and equal security. In this respect, the talks between the Soviet Union and the United States on the limitation of nuclear weapons in Europe are of especially great significance. The meeting appreciated the Soviet Union's contribution in the form of its pro­ posals announced in Moscow on 21 December 1982. These talks, however, are taking place in a situation in which NATO countries declare their intention to start deploying new United States medium-range nuclear missiles in Western Europe as early as the end of 1983, if no agreement is reached at the talks by then. With such an approach, tantamount to an artificial setting ofa deadline for ending the talks, its supporters may further protract the talks and ultimately, arguing that no agreement exists, start actually deploying United States missiles. The participants in the meeting believe that it is urgently necessary that the talks on limiting nuclear weapons in Europe be conducted in a constructive spirit and that maximum efforts be exerted for the speedy conclusion of concrete agreements at these talks. The suc­ cess of the talks requires that no action be taken which could complicate them; on the contrary, steps are needed which would help to create a favourable atmosphere for progress in these talks. Aware of the vital importance of the reduction and limitation of medium-range nuclear weapons in Europe for all European peoples, the participants in the meeting voice the hope that all European States will help to promote progress at the talks between the Soviet Union and the United States on this issue and their successful completion.
