15. The existence of apartheid in South Africa poses a major threat to international peace and security. The Government of South Africa has continued to flout international opinion with impunity and has embarked on a course of suppression and enslavement of the indigenous people. That country has not heeded the appeals of the United Nations to abandon its dangerous policies of apartheid. It has even extended its oppressive policies to South West Africa, despite the advisory opinion of the International Court of Justice that it, acting alone, cannot change the international status of South West Africa. Even as I am speaking now it is busy building a military base in the Caprivi Strip, which is an international territory, at a point dangerously close to Zambia. South Africa may argue that this base is for commercial purposes. But we know the full facts behind this project.
