paragraph 6 of the draft resolution and paragraph 6 of the draft decision, and their collaboration with the South African regime should have been condemned because it constituted a major obstacle to Namibian independence. 102. Mr. SMERAL (Czechoslovakia) said that, although a number of delegations had called tor more concrete action, the two drafts contained no direct condemnation of the ongoing large-scale co-operation between the United States and Israel on the one hand and the South African regime on the other. There were, therefore, serious doubts about the effectiveness of those texts. 103. Mr. OLEANDROV (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics) said that his delegation had voted in favour of both drafts because they condemned the economic and military activities of colonial Powers in the colonial territories and called for an end to such activities which hindered the implementation of the Declaration on the Granting of Independence to Colonial Countries and Peoples. However, both texts should contain stronger wording against colonialism and neo-colonialism and a specific reference to the countries supporting the racist regime of South Africa. The wording of the two drafts had been weakened, at the request of certain Western countries, in order to reach a genuine consensus. Yet, those countries had later rejected the consensus and even voted against the weak wording in the Fourth Committee. That transparent manouevre had been repeated year after year. Therefore, in the best interests of the struggle against colonialism, the Special Corr..nittee should, in future, adopt more strongly worded decisions in anticipation of that manouevre. 104. Mr. MOUSHAITI (Libyan Arab Jamahiriya) said that his delegation had voted for the draft resolution despite its weak wording which served the interests of the forces which encouraged the racist regime in South Africa, promoted colonialism and the establishment of military bases, and supported the transnational corporations 
**Analysis**
The text appears to be discussing international politics and diplomacy, specifically the United Nations and its resolutions regarding colonialism and the struggle for independence in Namibia. The speakers mention economic and military activities, colonial powers, and the racist regime in South Africa, which suggests that the topic is not directly related to economic development, natural resources, or environmental issues.
