Abstract
This article contains an extension of the de Rham decomposition theorem to affinely connected manifolds which may have torsion. Our proof is based on a geometric homotopy lemma, which allows a simple and comparatively short proof of this result by means of the Cartan-Ambrose-Hicks theorem.
