analysis: The text discusses the global economic crisis and its impact on international relations, highlighting the need for a new international economic order and global negotiations. The speaker also emphasizes the importance of cooperation and collective action to address the crisis. The text does not specifically focus on natural resources, environment, agriculture, forestry, fishing, industry, transport, communication, health, education, employment, or humanitarian aid and relief. However, it does mention the concept of "shared political responsibility" and the need for a "common destiny" among nations, which could be related to international cooperation and development.
