While Marxist-Leninist ideology as advocated by the Soviet Union, the People's Republic of China, and their Communist allies adheres to a theory of class struggle unsuited for the African continent, which knew little of the Marxist conception of socioeconomic competition before the era of colonization, the United Republic of Tanzania is intrigued by the nature of this seminar.

Indeed, just as we respect the United States for their initial role in supporting decolonization, or the French and British for their proud histories of literature and philosophy, Mwalimu Nyerere has long been an admirer of the Soviet Union's economic success and widespread aid for the developing world. Furthermore, not only does the Father of the Nation have a great fondness for the philosophical advances of Mao Zedong Thought, with its theory of the New Democratic Revolution being an influence on the Arusha Declaration, but a sincere love for our allies the Chinese people, their heroic battle to overcome the obstacles of European and Japanese imperialism, and subsequent support of anti-imperialist and post-colonial movements internationally.

Therefore, while we do not wish this to be considered an endorsement of the so-called Eastern bloc or its policies, we do approve of the stated aims of the Seminar, namely the notion of diffusing ideas and culture between the involved nations. We would therefore express interest in being granted observer status at both of the upcoming seminars, and offer to send Aboud Jumbe of the Revolutionary Council of Zanzibar alongside Rashidi Kawawa, a socialist theorist and Second Vice-President, in order to offer the attendees of the Seminar an education on the principles of Tanzanian cooperative economics based on ujamaa, articulate our vision of Pan-African unity, and learn from participants on how best to develop our nation's economy.

We also salute the integration of Tanzania into the endeavor. Although they are certainly not a Communist country, they are a brave and courageous people who also fight against the imperialism and colonialism of the Western powers. Worthy companions to be sure!

Although the Arab world has long pioneered its own road to socialism, distinct and separate from the constructions envisaged by Marx and his contemporaries and successors, it has long been the policy of the Ba'ath Party that the united Arab nation must gradually make its way towards the establishment of socialism. Just as the Prophet (peace and prayers of Allah be upon him) originated socialist thought under his rule, we seek to utilise socialism to break the bonds that hold the Arab people in oppression and slavery, and thereby establish peace and prosperity for our people.

To this end, although we (like the Tanzanians) have had our differences with Marxism-Leninism, and we likewise admire many of the achievements won by its adherents and stand together with them on a number of issues - most prominently anti-imperialism. To this end, we would wish to be admitted as observers to this Seminar in order to present our own vision and to build ties with like minded peoples.

The Democratic Republic of Vietnam would like to officially join this seminar. As one of the nations directly fighting against American imperialism, an effort in which we are supported by our socialist brethren across the globe, it is only natural that we would endeavour to pay back the generosity shown to us. Attending this seminar and helping to solve any potential disputes between our ideological allies that may arise, is the least we can do!
