TALKING POINTS

UNHCR RESETTLEMENT MEETING April 22, 1982

I wish to compliment the High Commissioner and his

staff for the thorough preparations which preceeded

this meeting. The world community is fortunate that

these serious matters are in the hands of capable

persons.

Over the past 7 years, my government consistently

has manifested its concern for the lives and welfare

of Indochinese refugees. That concern continues.

However, we all must recognize that such problems are

dynamic and that their resolutions can be furthered

only through an ongoing reassessment of the issues

By organizing this meeting, UNHCR has provided an

opportunity to do so. We welcome this opportunity.
