Provisional Government of the Republic of New Afrika Advises African Union Legal Reference Group

Free the Land!

The African Charter on Human and People's Rights, Article 20 Section 3 states, "All peoples shall have the right to the assistance of the States Parties to the present Charter in their liberation struggle against foreign domination, be it political, economic or cultural."

The Accra Proclamation on Reparations calls for the formation of a Legal Reference Group to provide “legal advice on the question of reparations, including best practice on the law, practice and litigation of the reparation’s agenda.” It also calls for the Amplification of marginalized voices in the reparatory justice movement and Increased role for the United Nations in the Exploration of legal and judicial options for reparations.

Today, the Interim Provisional Government of the Republic of New Afrika delivered to the office of the AU Commission For International Law (AUCIL) a 𝐁𝐑𝐈𝐄𝐅 𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐀𝐔 𝐋𝐄𝐆𝐀𝐋 𝐑𝐄𝐅𝐄𝐑𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐄 𝐆𝐑𝐎𝐔𝐏 𝐎𝐍 𝐑𝐄𝐏𝐀𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒 (see attached) regarding the New Afrikan Independence Movement's struggle for liberation and the Request for an ICJ Advisory Opinion that is on the Agenda for the next session of the UN Permanent Forum on People of African Descent.

We look forward to assisting the AU Legal Reference Group in this matter.

By any means necessary,

Siphiwe Baleka,

Minister of Foreign Affairs
