11. 4. To give complete support to the fight of the Congo (Leo) people against the American imperialists and their Belgian and British allies. At the opening, President Osagyefo Nkrumah of Ghana delivered a speech from which we quote the following: "At this conference of solidarity between the peoples of Africa and Asia, even more than in the preceding ones, grave and momentous decisions will have to be taken to meet new emergencies in the conflict between imperialism and the majority of mankind. "It cannot be otherwise: Afro-Asian solidarity, itself, emerged from this conflict. It emerged from our common determination to destroy the remnants of colonialism, and our common need to repuls the assault of neo-colonialism in its efforts to recover the ground lost by imperialism in the great socialist revolutions and world wide struggles for national liberation which followed the Second World V/ar. "Each new wave of national liberation and decolonisation has swept imperialism into ever-deepening economic and political crises# Its desperate moves to save itself from extinction have made all efforts at peaceful co-existence and a peaceful transition to a world freed from national, racial and economic oppression harder and harder to attain.... "In this conference of peoples of the Afro-Asian world, we are not only concerned with peoples who are seeking to defend their independence and to use their independence for social and economic development. V/e are also concerned with peoples still under the colonial yoke, still enslaved by foreign invaders. "We are not unmindful that for the peoples of South Africa, Mozambique, Angola, Zimbabwe and so-called Portuguese Guinea, and others the problems of independence and neo-colonialism, of economic development and equitable trade do not arise in the same sharp form as fpr the independent peoples in this conference. To them we say: Brothers, we know your needs and will not forget themt You are entitled to your freedom at any cost, and if you are only able to gain your freedom.by an armed struggle, we will not only consider your wars against the foreign oppressor as just and holy, but we will be prepared to help you as if these were our own wars for our own liberation. "If we say less, and do less at this conference, we shall be making a mockery of the solidarity in whose cause we are here gathered. We shall be doing violence to all the instincts and moral principles which drove us in the struggles for our own freedom. What is more, we;shall be frustrating our own efforts to drive imperialism and neb-colonialism out of our own borders....
