text: idea of proclaiming the Principle of economic openness and will give the necessary BHS/sm A/S-18/PV. 5 59 (Mr. Lipatov, Ukrainian SSR) impetus to the United Nations and the specialized agencies to formulate provisions which would help t:o give cnncrete cnntent to this principle. It is well known that many international economic and scientific organizations within the United Nations system are engaged in working out international standards, norms and rules in specific areas of socio-economic activities. We greatly appreciate this activity of the United Nations system, for we feel it is an important element in the overall movement towards integrating national economies into the global world economy. However, we feel that the speed and scope of this growing interdependence in the world economy require that the work should be expedited. For this session, it would be desirable for the special session to draw the attention of the relevant bodies and organizations in the United Nations system to the need for more intensive work oo ceveloping such norms, standards and rules in each one's area of competence. The Ukrainian delegation supports the activities the United Nations Secretariat has bequn in identifyinq potential problems in the world economy. We believe that at a time when the area of economic co-operation between States is expanding, such activities should increasingly take on the nature of regular forecasts. The relevant bodies of the United Nations should be oriented towards working out recommendations for eliminating the economic causes of potential socio-economic crises and for implementing economic preventive measures to prevent any exacerbation of regional conflicts or international tension. Our view of the future economic activities of the United Nations leads us to believe that the structure of intergovernmental and Secretariat bodies in the socio-economic sector of the United Nations and the specialized agencies should adapt to the new demands of today's global economic processes. Such restructuring
