UN General Assembly
1968

80. The Government of the Peoples’ Republic of Albania, in line with its policy of adherence to Marxist-Leninist principles and steadfastly faithful to the ties of traditional close friendship linking the Albanian people to their brothers the Arab peoples, has vehemently condemned the aggression of 5 June and has resolutely supported the just struggle of the Arab States and peoples for freedom and national independence. Developments since last year’s aggression have confirmed that the only settlement that is just and in keeping with the vital interests and legitimate rights of the Arab States and with peace and security in the Middle East is to put into effect the measures proposed in the draft resolution submitted by the People’s Republic of Albania on 26 June 1967. We adhere to our just position, and insist that it is the only possible solution for the situation which has arisen since Israel’s aggression. The whole Albanian people are following with great sympathy and interest the armed struggle of the people in the areas occupied by Israel, and is delighted at their success. We are firmly convinced that the United Arab Peoples, inspired by their great military tradition, will be able to extend and carry forward this just struggle until they have triumphed once and for all over imperialism and its tool Israel.
