...week, South Africa gave several indications that it is indeed willing to bend on three specific issues that bother the black nations. Botha's mission issued a press release announcing that the Pretoria government will cut back the South African police contingent that has been propping up the white-supremacist regime of Rhodesia's Premier Ian Smith against attacks from Zambia-based black nationalist guerrillas...
