Assembly resolution 32/105N of 14 December 1977 on the question of bantustans.
"The Security Council condemns the proclamation of the so-called 'independence' of Venda and declares it totally invalid. This action by the South African regime, following similar proclamations in the case of the Transkei and Bophuthatswana, denounced by the international community, is designed to divide and dispossess the African people and establish client States under its domination in order to perpetuate apartheid. It further aggravates the situation in the

region and hinders international efforts for just and lasting solutions.
"The Security Council calls upon all Governments to deny any form of recognition to the so-called 'independent' bantustans, to refrain from any dealings with them and to reject travel documents issued by them, and urges Governments of Member States to take effective measures to prohibit all individuals, corporations and other institutions under their jurisdiction from having any dealings with the so-called 'independent' bantustans."
