ABSTRACT

In response to the United Nations resolution for the observation of 1975 as the International Woman's Year to be dedicated to serious discussions on the situation of woman and support for her struggle, Mr Saddam Hussein gave the following special statement to 'Woman' magazine: From the very beginning we must emphasise that the principled revolutionary outlook must be based on the situation as a whole. That is why we don't look on woman in isolation from the total situation we are considering. She is a member of our revolutionary society with all the rights and duties associated with a human being.
