Panafrican Youth Movement denounces the W. S. military occupation
The 8th Congress of the PYM, meeting for three days at Algier,
denounces, in a message to the Sahrawi people, the illegal military
occupation of parts of W. S. by Morocco. The PYM affirms that "it will
continue to support strongly and inconditionnally the legitim struggle
of the Sahrawi people for their right to self determination and
independance. The liberation of Africa will not be complete so long as
the SADR has not been entirely liberated". The Congress called urgently
the U. N. to take concrete mesures in order to force Morocco to leave
its requirements and to allow the implementation of the peace plan.
