text: a matter of urgency to reassess our commitment to the cause of disarmament more realistically and effectively. The Programme of Action adopted by consensus by the General Assembly on 1 July 1978, at the conclusion of its special session devoted to disarmament, clearly and unequivocally established, as we all know, that priorities for disarmament negotiations were nuclear weapons, other weapons of mass destruction including chemical weapons, conventional weapons, including those which can be considered extremely harmful or having indiscriminate effects, and reductions in the armed forces. Immediately following , it stated that nothing should prevent States from conducting negotiations simultaneously on all priority items. With regard to nuclear disarmament, the end result of the seven years which have elapsed since then is frankly discouraging. The doctrine of arms control, which at a given moment allowed mankind to cherish the dream of a nuclear-weapon- free world, has become, due to undeniable facts, the doctrine of nuclear rearmament. It thus encourages the absurd thesis that it is possible to wage nuclear war and win. NR/mh A/C.l/40/PV.ll 6 (Mr. Alzamora, Peru) The SALT I and SALT II agreements, which gave rise to so much expectation in t.he 1970s, now have precariously survived, thanks to a modus vivandi between the super-Powers which is about to be sacrificed to the temptation for what has come to be known as "star wars", which would be nothing but the beginning of a struggle in the whole of space for universal supremacy. While it is true that the third Review Conference of Parties to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons adopted a final declaration which more or less expressed the concern of the Contracting Parties, that consensus will remain precarious so long as the nuclear Powers continue to evade their responsibility 
analysis: The text appears to be discussing the state of disarmament and the reduction of nuclear weapons, which suggests a category related to international relations and global security. The text references international agreements, treaties, and conferences, and expresses concerns about the lack of progress in achieving disarmament goals. This focus on international relations and global security makes me hypothesize that the most fitting category is either International Relations or Humanitarian Aid and Relief.
