What was the main idea of this U.N declaration?Mindful of the determination proclaimed by the peoples of the world in the Charter of the United Nations to reaffirm faith in fundamental human rights, in the dignity and worth of the human person..., Solemnly proclaims the necessity of bringing to a speedy and unconditional end colonialism in all its forms... And to this end declares that: The subjection of peoples to alien subjugation, domination and exploitation... is contrary to the Charter of the United Nations and is an impediment to the promotion of world peace and co-operation. All peoples have the right to self-determination; by virtue of that right they freely determine their political status and freely pursue their economic, social, and cultural development.
