text: the whole sanctions policy in general. This report is presented for the attention of the Council in a situation characterized by the continued and intensified oppression of the people of Zimbabwe by the illegal racist minority re’gime, by the arbitrary and unlawful imprisonment and detention of the legitimate representatives of the Zimbabwe people and the continued denial of fundamental human rights including, especially, the recent abhorrent measures of collective punishment. This situation clearly constitutes a threat to regional and international peace and security and provokes the legitimate struggle of the Zimbabwe people and their national liberation movement against oppression and against tile policy of apartheid in Southern Rhodesia. The illegal regime is continuing its apartheid policy, especially by the establishment of so-called “tribal trust homelands”, copying thereby the practice of apart- heid, imported from South Africa. The illegal presence of South African forces in Southern Rhodesia is continuing. This seriously threatens the sovereignty and territorial integrity of neighbouring independent African States, as ws clearly shown in the case of Zambia, which was recently the subject of the Council’s deliberations. So far the administering Power has failed to take effective measures to put an end to the illegal re’gime and to discharge its primary responsibility by enabling the people of Zimbabwe to exercise freely their right to self-determina- tion and independence. Furthermore, no steps towards the political solution of the problem have been made recently, 39. Turning now, more specifically, to the question of sanctions, we note that the situation remains gloomy and disturbing. The discrepancies-revealed in annex V of the Committee’s fifth report-between the quantities of certain commodities reported to have been imported from South Africa, Moz‘ambique and Angola and the quantities re- ported to have been exported by those countries clearly indicate the flagrant and widespread violations of sanctions,
