and what dees this detente aoun, oenorotely* Detente simply moons an

o*;reeuent as to the division of the spheres of influenoo in the world <ind

between the super powers, and what was this decision? Concretely i t aeans

that Russia has been permit ted by imperialism to do whatever i t chooses

with the countries in Eastern Europe, in sxaaple of th i s wi l l i l lu s t ra te

t h i s . Russia, as you Know, at one tine invaded Hungary* There was a l e t

of noise but nothing happened, and then i t invaded CheosSlovakia* During

that period Ruoola anassed a tremendous amount of i t s aray en the s o i l of

Suropo because Ckooeslevakia i s Europe* Re such thing was possible

without tho agreement and connivance of America, England and Burepe* l t*a

inconceivable that Russia en i t s own could simply oeme and amass such

a big force, military force, en the s o i l of Kurepe and be allowed to get

away with i t* I t*s inconceivable but because i t took place, under the

framework of the detente, Russia knew she would be allowed to do so* Per

a long time we wondered, since in these matters there i s the question of

the quid pro que* What i e Russia going to give? At one time I used to

think, i s i t Cuba, and we thought, no, i t ' s net possible , i t has new

beoeme d e a r , i t* a net Cuba* Ruasia had to give en the one queetien

which i s basic to imperialism and that i s South Afrioa* Russia has to

acknowledge that South Africa i s part of Europe en the Continent of Afrioa

and therefore, th i s i s a sphere of Europe and Russia must net interfere

and for this reason there l a going to be no question of Russia doing what

i t did in Angela and meoambique. There l a an agreement en both aides en

th i s question* In the f i r s t place, Russia would net r i sk breaking the

detente over South Africa, i t ' s toe far from i t to be worthwhile, so the

detente i n general, the world detente ia far mere important to Rueaia than

South Africa* South Afrioa la v i t a l to imperialism, therefore, between

them there i s an understanding and once there i s this agreement you must

also understand, there iu agreement at the top and i t gees right down*

All these countries that are the c l i en t s t a t s s of the super powers must

take their varisua posit ions and a l l of them have to agree with th i s so

there we are faced with a s i tuation. Once the agreement i e taken i t

organisations that are net connected with the establishment, these

organisations that are Independent ef the establishment. I t i s snly

they and they alone that we can turn to. What we ask for i s the

formation of support oemmlttoss everywhere, support oomaltteee te

the nevemonta i n South Africa that are f ighting for l iberat ion. No

are asking for th i s reason, we are ashing you te give us an opport­

unity te haws an independent peaitien so that we can think indepen­

dently, f ight independently, and f ight our batt los Independent ef

s ta te s , independent ef super powers, snd therefore independent ef

the s a t e l l i t e s ef the super powers. This i s what we are asking e f

the populations ef England, since I am in England I should say ef the

people ef England form your support oemaittees and giro us the

opportunity JO that we are free from being dependent upon s tates ,

beoauee no state i s Independent ef the super powers. The s tates in

Africa are net independent ef super powers. Whatever decision i s

taken up there has te be carried out, therefore we have to be freed

from dependence en aupor powers er theae powers depending en super

powers. This i s what we ask y u for and f iratthing i f you form your

/committees and these o o n m l t t e e e . . . . . . . .
