UN General Assembly
1976

78. The United Nations is shouldering a special responsibility with regard to Namibia and all Member States must give their full support to this Organization so that the people of Namibia may enjoy their inalienable right to independence. With regard to Zimbabwe, we express the hope that efforts currently under way will lead to positive results and enable its people to exercise their inalienable right to self-determination and to attain the majority government to which they are entitled. The abhorrent policies of apartheid in South Africa continue to be an affront to the conscience of mankind, inasmuch as they constitute a negation of justice, human dignity and the moral values for which our civilization stands. We emphatically condemn the injustice being perpetrated against the South African people in defiance of repeated United Nations resolutions, and we call for the adoption of effective measures for the implementation of these resolutions; we also denounce "bantustanization" in South Africa, which is aimed at preventing the liberation of its people, while at the same time breaking up the unity of the country. We call for effective and resolute action to combat the designs of the racist regime.
