It is necessary that the nations that have given rise to this situation condemn colonialism acknowledging their behaviour as a crime, reconcile with their past, apologize and compensate the colonized countries.

This decision will help create a climate of friendship and cooperation among peoples and create an extremely positive precedent in international relations, promoting the supremacy of the "force of law" on the "law of force".

Nonviolence is the greatest force at the disposal of mankind. It is mightier than the mightiest weapon of destruction devised by the ingenuity of man. Destruction is not the law of the humans. Man lives freely by his readiness to die, if need be, at the hands of his brother, never by killing him. Every murder or other injury, no matter for what cause, committed or inflicted on another is a crime against humanity.
Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, Harijan, 1936
