The popular masses' struggle for realizing the desire for independence is an arduous struggle against the imperialists and all sorts of reactionaries putting a brake on it, the article notes, and goes on:

The confrontation between the independent forces and the hegemonic forces inevitably accompanies the confrontation of strength.

The tremendous might pushing forward the struggle for independence against the imperialists lies in the unity of the independent forces.

Unity provides a fundamental way of strengthening the driving force for accomplishing the cause of global independence.

The respect for sovereignty is a fundamental principle to be maintained by the progressive people of all countries in their struggle against the imperialists.

Independence is the lifeline of a country and nation and also the lifeline of humankind.

The imperialists are dregs of history who have outlived their days but they are reluctant to come down from the stage of history of their own accord.

Today the imperialist reactionaries leave no stone unturned to stamp out the forces for independence against imperialism in collusion.

They are trying desperately to divide and disintegrate the forces for independence against imperialism including the non-aligned movement and establish their order of domination.

This has seriously violated and encroached upon the sovereignty of countries and nations and harassed the world peace and security.

The situation urgently demands that all the countries advocating independence strengthen unity and solidarity and strenuously wage the struggle against the imperialists by their concerted efforts.
