U.S. vetoes resolution
(Continued fro m page ! column 6)
economic and political process. We
recognize that a measure o f change
is already under way in South A f
rica. A t such a tim e , when many
South Africans o f all races, in and
out o f Government, are seeking to
move away from apartheid, it is our
task to be supportive o f this process
so that proponents o f reform and
n onviolent change can gain and
hold the initiative."
The
U .S .
veto
was
not
unexpected. A ccording to a N ew
York Times report the dom inant
topic o f conversation at the United
Nations Saturday was the growing
iso latio n o f the U .S . in a w orld
community that has almost univer
sally condemned South Africa's at
tack.
The U .S . position was forcefully
outlined in a speech Saturday night
by acting U .N . delegate Charles
L ichenstein, who defended the
South African government's action.
Stating that the U .S. "deplores vio
lence form any quarter," he said the
assault must be understood in its
"surrounding context" marked by
the fact that Angola contains "large
elements o f foreign advisors" and
that "substantial supplies o f foreign
arms have been shipped into Angola
to supply and resupply elements o f
the South-West Africa People’s O r
ganization that have engaged in vio
lence across the Angolan border.”
A release by the government o f
Cuba compared the brutality o f the
invasion o f A ngola w ith the
apartheid and the illegal occupation
o f Nam ibia by South A frica. C a ll
ing the invasion an act o f cowardice,
the Cuban government warned that
if the invasion reaches areas where
C uban troops are stationed the
troops will fulfill their committment
to the Angolan people by meeting
the enemy with everything at their
disposal and repeated its intention
to stand behind the people o f
Angola " in defense o f the indepen
dence and national integrity."
The U n ited States was the only
nation voting against the resolution,
B rita in abstained. M exico said a
fa ili/te to denounce South A fric a
would seriously im pair respect for
the Security C o u n c il; In d ia sug
gested that South A frica could not
engage in aggression without "sup
port and encouragement from cer
tain Western quarters for economic
and so-called strategic reasons.
South A fric a rad io charged
Monday that as the controversy de
veloped "W e s t European govern
ments joined the Third W orld com
munist outcry against P re to ria .”
These nations blamed South Africa
and not S W A P O for the problem ,
branded South A fric a ’s conduct as
"in ad m issab le" and pledged sup
port for A n g o la. This a ttitu d e ,
South A fric a charged, stemmed
from the new Socialist government
in Paris.
“ It was left to the United States
to make a realistic assessment and to
view the Angolan action in an East-
West c o n te x t___ Started by the
United States and highlighted by the
South African move against Soviet-
backed forces in southern Angola,
there is now the hope that realism
will prevail over ideology and emo
tion in the Western evaluations o f
the struggle in the region."
