We former, present and future colonised people contribute greatly to the foundation of your industrial and economic capital. That interest on that capital should come back to us. So please don't say we're costing you dear.
Furthermore, the help that you are giving us is aimed above all at preserving your own markets and maintaining your economic privileges.
Soleil Ô / Oh, Sun (1967) Dir. Med Hondo

Resolution 377 allows the UN body to take action whenever there was an indication that the UN Security Council may have failed to "exercise its primary responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security".
The resolution was first adopted by the UN General Assembly in 1950.
Of the 13 times that UN Article 377, has been invoked since 1955, 5 have been related to Israeli aggression, occupation, invasion.
1956 - Gaza & Egypt invasion
1967 Jerusalem
1980 Palestine
1982 Golan Heights
1997 Palestine
The 193-member United Nations General Assembly has announced that it will hold a special session on Gaza to take place on Tuesday December 12, a press statement issued by the UN General Assembly President confirmed on Sunday.
"President of the UN General Assembly, Dennis Francis, has just informed Member States that he will convene the 45th plenary meeting of the tenth Emergency Special Session of the General Assembly on Tuesday, 12 December 2023," the press service of the General Assembly's President Dennis Francis said.
Egypt and Mauritania had formally requested a meeting by invoking the UN General Assembly Resolution 377 "Uniting for Peace" in a letter to President Francis.
The letter emphasised the need to reconvene following "a Permanent Member of the Security Council" vetoing a Security Council Gaza ceasefire resolution- in reference to the controversial US vote.
