67. The question now is how much longer this Organization can postpone taking a decisive stand on the problem and adopting measures in the form of total economic blockade. The question is, too, whether Member States which have continuously supplied arms and ammunition to South Africa will now, as urged by the Security Council, "cease forthwith" giving aid and support to a morally bankrupt regime, or whether, even at this late stage, they are determined to continue to encourage acts of racism through traffic in arms, obdurately deaf to both conscience and world opinion. 68. We welcome the news that the United Kingdom Government, the traditional arms supplier to South Africa, has considered terminating further shipment of arms to that racist Government. We urge the immediate implementation of such a decision, and call upon all those still hesitant to take similar action without delay.
