measures such as those referred to in Security Council resolution 569 (1985) and in General Assembly resolution 39/72 G, adopted on 13 December 1984. The Ukrainian SSR condemns the United States policy of “constructive engagement” with the racist Pretoria regime, as well as the policy which the United States, a number of other States members of NATO and Israel are followinq in maintaining broad collaboration with the South African regime in various spheres. That is nullifying international efforts to eradicate apartheid and is leading to the intensification of repression within the country and an increase in aqqression against independent African countries. The Ukrainian SSR remains in complete solidarity with the national liberation movements of southern Africa, which are waging a legitimate struggle against apartheid and for freedom and independence, and therefore gives them assistance and support. In our opinion, the observance this year of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the adoption of the Declaration on the Granting of Independence to Colonial Countries and Peoples should give an immense boost to the struggle against colonialism, racism and apartheid. / . . .
