...cannot compare them with the Republic of South Africa. South West Africa does not belong to the Republic of South Africa. We were only the mandatory force. We accepted that if Rhodesia wants to become a new state on the principle of one-man, one-vote, we won't object to it because we aren't poking our noses into the affairs of Rhodesia.
