UN, November 1. /tass/. The First Committee of the UN General Assembly approved three Russian resolutions on Monday - on the prevention of an arms race in outer space, on the non-deployment of weapons in outer space by the first, as well as on measures to ensure transparency and confidence-building in space activities.

The first document was co-authored by Armenia, Egypt, Zimbabwe, Cuba, Kyrgyzstan, Laos, Nicaragua, Syria and Uzbekistan. The text emphasizes that the exclusion of outer space from the arms race and its preservation for peaceful purposes should become "a strict norm of State policy and generally recognized international obligations." There are calls to "take urgent measures to permanently prevent the deployment of weapons in outer space, the use of force or the threat of force," as well as to seek "the earliest possible achievement of appropriate reliably controlled legally binding multilateral agreements."

The resolution on non-deployment stresses the importance of "the early start of substantive work on the basis of an updated draft treaty on the prevention of the placement of weapons in outer space."

The co-authors of the text on confidence-building measures are the United States and China. The document, in particular, calls on countries to "continue to provide information on specific unilateral, bilateral, regional and multilateral transparency and confidence-building measures in space activities at relevant forums."

The General Assembly is due to vote on the resolutions in December.
