ZOOM OUT AND PAN TO Assembly applauding. 1.46 TRANSCRIPT: SEQ. 4: U THANT: We must recognise the unity of the world, the priority of Man, the solidarity of nations, the cumulative effects of individual actions at the national level, and the need for us to practice tolerance and live together in peace with one another as good neighbours in a shrinking world. In short, we must recognise that human sovereignty must transcend national sovereignty. If we can tackle these problem in and through the United Nations and elsewhere in this spirit of human solidarity, there is hope. As the alternative is too horrible to contemplate, I am convinced that we shall succeed in this effort. Initials BB/PW/BJ Script is copyright Reuters Limited. All rights reserved
