UN General Assembly

146. A dangerous situation is also being created by overt military intervention on the part of the imperialist Powers in the domestic affairs of the Congolese people. All over the world great indignation was aroused by the recent attack against the patriotic forces in Stanleyville by Belgian paratroopers dropped from United States aircraft that took off from airports controlled by the United Kingdom. This collective intervention by the old and new NATO colonizers constitutes a further flagrant violation of the fundamental principles of the United Nations Charter, and was directed not only against the Congolese people but also against Africa as a whole. All anti-imperialist and anti-colonial forces must unite firmly in opposition to this intervention. The Government of the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic, in its statement of 1 December 1964, expressed full support for the efforts of the African countries, united in the Organization of African Unity, to stop this colonialist intervention in the Congo.
