Abstract
Let us bid farewell to arms and, in a civilized way, consecrate ourselves to the most pressing problems of our time. That is the responsibility and the most sacred duty of all the world’s statesmen. That is, in addition, the indispensable premise for human survival. (Fidel Castro. 34th Period of Sessions of the General Assembly of the United Nations, New York, 12 October 1979.)
