RUSSIAN FEDERATION:
M. E. Kokeev stated that the CSD should
become not only a political forum for strengthening North-South and
East-West partnership but also to prepare specific recommendations
for countries and international organizations on the basis of
analysis of main trends, problems and experience accumulated in the
field of sustainable development as well as a dialogue with all
participants, including NGOs. It is also important that there be
improvement of structures for coordination among all elements of
the UN system. The Russian Federation, on behalf of the
Commonwealth of Independent States, is submitting a draft
resolution on strengthening ecological monitoring from space as one
of the key components of the implementation of the UNCED decisions.
The draft resolution is aimed at initiating a dialogue at this
session of the General Assembly and its progressive development in
the future.
