Ape and Jackie. Them was good times, you know.

Similarly, what Under Secretary General Abe referred to is very true with regard to the Review Conference of the Parties to the Treaty on the Non Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons.

The Committee also held an extremely interesting interactive dialogue with the Under Secretary General for Disarmament Affairs, Mr. Nobuyasu Abe, on the follow up of draft resolutions and decisions adopted by the Committee at its previous session.

I should like also to express my appreciation to the Under Secretary General for Disarmament Affairs, Mr. Nobuyasu Abe, and Mr. Jian Chen, the Under Secretary General for General Assembly and Conference Management, for the leadership they provided the Secretariat staff assisting the Committee and for their valuable contribution.
