The International Conference wholeheartedly supports the struggle of the people of Bangladesh against West Pakistani dominance. The Conference feels deeply shocked at the ruthless military campaign of wanton destruction, amounting to genocide, directed against the people of Bangladesh, especially against the Awami League which won an overwhelming popular mandate on the December, 1970 General Elections to the Pakistan National Assembly, the intellectuals and the minorities. This has resulted in the death of million and in the exodus of over eight million refugees into India-an exodus which still continues and has placed tremendous economic and social burdens on India. 3.The Conference expresses appreciation of the commendable work done by the Government and people of India in giving relief to the refugees from Bangladesh and of the assistance offered by the international community for this deeply humanitarian work. 4. The Conference declares that the political struggle of the people of Bangladesh should be viewed by the international community as a national struggle for freedom. 5.The Conference especially condemns the gross violation of human rights in Pakistan which continues to this day and urges upon the members of the United Nations to place this problem before all organs of the United Nations as a violation of human rights and as a threat to the peace of the world. 6. The Conference affirms that a political settlement acceptable to the people and Government of Bangladesh as now constituted under the president ship of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman is an urgent necessity. The Conference further affirms that the return of the refugees to their homeland in safety and confidence depends on such a settlement and is an essential pre-condition for a solution of the present crisis. 7. The Conference recommends that the Government of Bangladesh be recognized by the Governments of the world, as Bangladesh has all the geographic, historical, ethnic and linguistic characteristics of a sovereign nation.
