UN General Assembly
1964

196. It is unfortunate that negotiations on disarmament have so far not advanced beyond the conclusion of the 1963 Moscow agreement pertaining to partial nuclear testing. The peoples of the world have since hoped that the three Powers which signed the Moscow Agreement would take wider and more effective steps to attain complete and general disarmament. We still entertain the hope that the Geneva negotiations will be resumed and that an agreement will be reached paving the way for co-operation, peace and security amongst all nations. 197. As for colonialism, in spite of the great efforts made for its eradication, and the fact that an additional number of African States have achieved independence since the last session, we find it is still tenacious in a number of regions of the world, and particularly in Africa—all this in contravention of the United Nations resolutions and despite the clamour of peoples still bent on their struggle for independence.
