Unity, meeting in its Twelfth Ordinary Session from 28 July to 1st August 1975 in Kampala,
Having heard the statements delivered during the Session of the Council of
Ministers by the representatives of the Arab Republic of Egypt and the PLO and other
delegations,
Having received the report of the OAU Administrative Secretary-General (CM/660

Recalling resolution AHG/res. 67 (IX), AHG/Res. 70 (X), CM/Res. 332 (XXIII), as
well as the resolution CM/Res. 393 (XXIV), and the declaration concerning Palestine and
the Middle East, CM/ST.14 (XXIV),
Guided by the principles and objectives of the Charter of the OAU and the UN and
by the common destiny of the Arab and African peoples, as well as their continuous
struggle, for their rights, freedom, peace and independence.
Noting with deep concern the constant deterioration of the situation in the Middle
East as a result of Israel’s persistent policy of aggression and refusal to abide by the United
Nations resolutions together with its continued aggression on the Arab people within and
outside the occupied Arab territories, and its continuous obstruction of every effort to
achieve a just and durable peace, with the aim of gaining time and imposing a fait-accompli
to establish aggression and occupation,
Reaffirming that just and permanent peace in Palestine and the Middle East can
only be attained on the basis of complete Israeli withdrawal from all the occupied Arab
territories and the exercise by the Palestinians of their full national rights to sovereignty,
national independence and self-determination,
