Salvador Allende - I will not step back... (1971)

Excerpt from French documentary “La Spirale“ directed by Armand Mattelart, 1976. I have no rights to this movie. I do not own the rights of this movie. “I say to you, comrades, comrades of so many years, I say to you calmly, with absolute confidence: I'm not cut out for apostle nor I'm cut out for messiah, I have no martyr conditions, I'm a social activist who carries out a task, the task that the people have given me. But understand it, those who want to roll back history and ignore the will of the majority of Chile: Without being cut out for martyr, I will not step back; so they know it: I'll leave La Moneda when I fulfill the mandate that the people gave me.
