UN General Assembly
1985

Just remember the praise lavished on the four points of the Truman program, the Alliance for Progress in Latin America and the economic policies of the present United States Administration. What are the results? The developing world has found itself chained in new shackles, the shackles of financial debt to its "benefactors", and is in fact deprived of the possibility of solving the existing economic and social problems in the interests of the peoples of the developing countries. It is time to dismantle the barriers and remove the obstacles and difficulties created by the Western Powers and get down to the business of the genuine restructuring of international economic relations on a just and democratic basis.
