UN General Assembly
1968

54. The time has come, we venture to think, for more effective measures to be taken, as some of the specialized agencies have done. The Charter makes provision for this course, and the United Nations must avail itself of those provisions and not merely mouth the Universal Declaration of twenty years ago with periodic piety if it wishes to continue to remain a purposeful and effective agency for the promotion of human rights. Such a step might even, hopefully, lead to an amelioration of the condition of the people of Namibia who remain chained, against their will, to the chariot wheels of South Africa and therefore to apartheid.
