The right cf Africans to develop their own political institutions
and organizations is the only move in the right direction and which
can be considered as being for the benefit of the African peoples.
African peoples under Portuguese colonial administration have
had a long history of legal farces in the past. For this reason,
this time, the Portuguese colonialists will not succeed to deceive
the majority of the African people with promises of autonomy. That
is why our people will continue to wage the armed struggle for self-
determination and national independence till its final victory.
The world should also know that, for the last three years, the
Portuguese fascist regime has been headed by Marcello Caetano, who
is tirelessly trying very hard to give fascism and colonialism
acceptability and new facade through demagogy and well planned propaganda without changing the fundamental features of the regime.
Although the Portuguese fascist regime under Marcello Caetano
succeeded only to create confusion in the capitalist countries about
what is really going on in the Portuguese colonies and thus attract
a few votes at the UN from these so called democratic governments,
nevertheless, this exercise in deception has run into serious
troubles not only in Africa but also in Portugal itself. The '
successful actions of sabotage carried out by underground organizations, Armed Revolutionary Action (A R A) since 1970 against
fascist and colonial policies, especially the successful interruption of communications from Lisbon at the time of NATO ministerial
meeting in JUNE 1971 and the destruction on the ground of 17 army
helicopters and other aircraft three months earlier, are clear
warnings to Portuguese fascism and colonialism that their days are
surely numbered both at home and in the African colonies under
Portuguese domination .
