ALGIERS: No decision can be taken without the effective participation of the Third World, Algerian President Houari Boumedienne said here last night [Sept 9] in a speech closing the fourth non-aligned summit conference. Presi­dent Boumedienne said that following the Big Power meetings in Peking, Moscow and Wash­ington, and the European Security Conference in Helsinki, the Algiers summit had become particularly necessary to show “decisions cannot be taken without the third world”.
