**Analysis**
The text appears to be a record of a meeting discussing human rights issues, specifically the adverse consequences of assisting the racist and colonialist regime of South Africa. The focus is on the violation of human rights and fundamental freedoms, including policies of racial discrimination and segregation. The text does not mention economic development, natural resources, industry, transport, communication, international trade, health, education, employment, humanitarian aid, or culture. It seems to be more related to the protection of minorities and the elimination of racial discrimination.
