text: over the forty-fourth session of the Assembly. My country's delegation is also pleased to welcome Namibia among us today as a new Member joining the United Nations after a long, heroic struggle by its people and unceasing support by peace-loving countries and by the United Nations for that legitimate struggle, which was crowned with the declaration of independence. We are confident that the free, independent Namibia will be a positive addition to the ·march of stability and prosperity in the African continent. BCT/td A/S-18/PV.4 27 (Mr. Al-Sabah, Kuwait) We look forwatd to the day when we shall celebrate the admission of the independent State of Palestine to membership of the United Nations. The United Nations and the world community are required to extend all their support to the Palestinian people's struggle until it gains its legitimate rights, and mainly its right to establish its independent State, with Al-Quds Al-Sharif -that is, the Holy City of Jerusalem -as its capital. The historical experiences that mankind has undergone have taught us that there is a strong link between economic stability and political stability in the world, and that stability in international economic conditions is an important element in creating an atmosphere of peace and co-operation between all members of the international community. And there can he no doubt that developing countries play an outstanding role in the growth and stability of the world economy and in expanding its base, all of which are needed for the prosperity and welfare of all nations. Against that backdrop this special session of the Assembly has now been convened to debate international economic co-operation and the revitalization of economic growth and development in the developing countries. We meet today while hopefully taking our first steps on the path of the 1990s,
