The correct answer is: A. 1995 – 2005
The Second International Decade for the Eradication of Colonialism was proclaimed by the United Nations General Assembly in 1990. It was a 10-year period from 1995 to 2005, during which the international community focused on the elimination of colonialism and all forms of alien domination.
The Decade was a success in many ways. It helped to raise awareness of the issue of colonialism and its harmful effects on people and societies. It also led to the decolonization of several territories, including East Timor and Western Sahara.
However, the Decade also had its limitations. It was not able to achieve its goal of eliminating colonialism altogether. Some territories, such as the Falkland Islands and Gibraltar, remain under colonial rule.
Despite its limitations, the Second International Decade for the Eradication of Colonialism was a significant step forward in the fight against colonialism. It helped to put the issue on the international agenda and to raise awareness of its harmful effects. It also led to the decolonization of several territories.
The other options are incorrect because they are not the correct decade for the Second International Decade for the Eradication of Colonialism.
