Affirms once again its recognition of the legitimacy of the struggle of the peoples under colonial and alien domination to exercise their right to self-determination and independence by all the necessary means at their disposal; condemns the activities of foreign economic and other interests which are impeding the implementation of the Declaration with respect to the colonial Territories; requests the Special Committee to continue to seek suitable means for the immediate and full implementation of General Assembly resolution 1514 (XV) in all Territories that have not yet attained independence and, in particular: (a) to formulate specific proposals for the elimination of the remaining manifestations of colonialism and to report thereon to the General Assembly at its 46th session; (b) to make concrete suggestions which would assist the Security Council in considering appropriate measures under the Charter with regard to developments in colonial Territories that are likely to threaten international peace and security; (c) to examine the compliance of Member States with resolution 1514 (XV) and other relevant resolutions on decolonization; (d) to pay special attention to the small Territories, in particular through the dispatch of visiting missions to those Territories whenever the Special Committee deems it appropriate; (e) to take all necessary steps to enlist world-wide support among Governments, as well as national and international organizations, for the achievement of the objectives of the Declaration.
