It was resolved that the Assembly
82.56
- express deep sorrow at the tragic loss of life which has already occurred in the Falkland Islands conflict;
- regrets the manner in which some sections of the Australian media have glamourised the conflict;
- draw the attention of the Australian people to the way in which the incident has escalated and that this is a warning of how easily a third world war could begin, therefore necessitating even more attention to ending the arms race;
request the Australian Government not to be involved politically or militarily in the conflict and, instead, to devote its efforts to work for a settlement of the dispute by the United Nations.
