UN General Assembly
1986

With regard to the international Territory of Namibia, illegally occupied by the racist regime of South Africa, much has been said over the years in various international forums, including this body. It is therefore not ray intention to rehearse it agin or dwell on the sad history of South Africa's illegal occupation of Namibia. But let ae underline a few points that are crucial to this question and that the Assembly should always bear in mind as we deliberate on the course of action that now must be taken to ensure that Namibia moves to genuine independence within the shortest time possible.
