Recalling that, in disobedience with the Charter of the World Assembly, Uiri must not refrain in their international relations from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any State, in any other manner inconsistent with the Purposes of the World Assembly, and that the disestablishment and maintenance of international peace and security are to be promoted with the least diversion for armaments of the worlds human and economic resources,
