text: Declaration of the Third Review Conference of the Parties to the treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, just held in Geneva, a paragraph in which the following is stated: "The Conference ••• deeply regretted that there has not yet been agreement on a global multilateral treaty permanently prohibiting nuclear tests by all States and in all areas, and asked the nuclear-weapon States parties to the Treaty to resume trilateral negotiations in 1985, and all nuclear-weapon States to participate, as a rna tter of top priority, in the urgent negotiation and conclusion of that treaty, within the framework of the Conference on Disarmament." That is a quote from the Final Declaration adopted by consensus at the recent Review Conference in Geneva. The second point to which I should like to refer, as I stated at the beginning of my statement, is the prevention of the arms race in outer space. The reasons why this is being given preferential treatment are obvious and well known. It was not without reason that the Heads of State or Government of six countries- Argentina, Greece, India, Sweden, Tanzania and Mexico -that signed the New Delhi Declaration, to which I have already referred, stressed the following: BHS/ve A/C.l/40/PV.3 24-25 (Mr. Garcia Robles, Mexico) "Outer space must be used for the benefit of mankind as a whole, not as a battle-ground of the future. We, therefore, call for the prohibition of the development, testing, production, deployment and use of all space weapons. An arms race in space would be enormously costly, and have grave destabilizing effects. It would also endanger a number of arms limitation and disarmament agreements." (A/40/114, p. 4) MLG/gmr A/C.l/ 40/PV. 3 26 (Mr. Garcia Robles, Mexico) In this respect it should also be borne in mind that, in the joint declaration 
analysis: The text appears to be discussing international relations and disarmament, specifically the prevention of nuclear tests and the prohibition of space weapons. The language used is formal and diplomatic, suggesting that it may be related to international agreements and treaties.
