305. The situation in Angola, Mozambique, Southern Rhodesia, Namibia and South Africa is an anachronism which could be described, to say the least, as repellent at this time in history when the forces of morality and scientific progress have overturned the age-old myths of racial superiority and exalted human dignity, opening the way to cooperation among all men in a spirit of mutual respect. 306. It is unthinkable that some minorities, swimming against the tide of history, should seek to resuscitate obsolete concepts in order to dominate and exploit others. 307. The Republic of Haiti, forged in the crucible of epic battles in order to proclaim the dignity of man and his inalienable and irrefutable right to liberty, would give a brotherly accolade to the African populations who are struggling for their independence and their dignity, It is our hope that all those oppressed peoples will be heartened and encouraged by the creation of the new independent State of Guinea-Bissau.
