Role of Japan’s Aid for the Maintenance of the Peace in the World

Abstract

The difficulties and dangers for the maintenance of peace in the world today are originated to the large extent from the inherent uncertainty in the political and economic foundations of the nations of the Third World. These facts could be recognized if one would recall how the Soviet Union succeeded to infiltrate into some parts of the Third World and established their influence, if not domination. Mr. Zenko Suzuki, Prime Minister stated on June 17, 1981, in the speech he made at the Royal Institute of International Affairs in London, during his visit to Europe that summer that Japan, in its role as an active contributor to peace and development in the world, intends to redouble its efforts to cooperate with the developing countries.
