The apartheid destruction on my subcontinent is in calculable. The fabric of family life of millions of my people has been shattered. Millions are homeless and unemployed. Our economy lies in ruins and our people are embroiled in political strife. Our resort to the armed struggle in 1960 with the formation of the military wing of the ANC, Umkhonto we Sizwe, was a purely defensive action against the violence of apartheid.
種族隔離制度給我們這片次大陸造成了難以估量的破壞。我們成千上萬人的家庭生活遭到了毀壞。幾百萬人流離失所，沒有工作。我們的經濟遭到嚴重破壞，我們的人民卷入了政治沖突。我們在1960年訴諸武裝斗爭，建立了非洲人民國民大會的戰斗組織——“民族之矛”，這純屬為反抗種族隔離制度的暴力而采取的自衛行動。
The factors which necessitated the armed struggle still exist today. We have no option but to continue. We express the hope that a climate conducive to a negotiated settlement will be created soon so that there may no longer be the need for the armed struggle.
今天，必須進行武裝斗爭的種種原因依然存在，因此除了繼續進行武裝斗爭外我們別無選擇。我們希望，不久將會出現一種有利于通過談判解決問題的局面，這樣就沒有必要再開展武裝斗爭了。
