"Proceeding from the insistent need not to lose time, to prevent the spread of the.
arms race to outer space, the USSR suggests to reach agreement on banning the use of
force in outer space and from space with regard to earth."
Pointing out that the Soviet proposals met with broad response and support at the
session of the United Nations General Assembly, Pavel Kutakhov stressed that "near-
earth space has become an important section of human activity. Peaceful exploration
of outer space must yield for mankind many things that will beautify its life, fill
it with new contents."
[In a similar report beoadcast on 9 Mar at 1600 GMT, Moscow said the meeting was
attended by G.V. Romanov, member of the Politburo and secretary of the CPSU Central
Committee; and L.V. Smirnov, deputy chairman of the USSR Council of Ministers, among
others.]
