Hurricane in the Bahamas
The Acting President
Before turning to our agenda for this morning, may I, on behalf of the Members of the General Assembly, and on my own behalf, extend to the Government and the people of the Bahamas, recently struck by hurricane Floyd, our deepest sympathy for the extensive material damage done to the country.
May I also express the hope that the international community will demonstrate its solidarity by responding promptly and generously to any request from these islands for assistance in their present plight.
