The situation on the ground in Zaire shows no marked change. Nigeria
has apparently taken on responsibility to mediate. This is obviously the
most desirable outcome. Nigerian Foreign Minister Carba was here today
and has left for the UN. Bill Schaufele tells me that the meeting was
productive, and a report is on its way over. I am aware of nothing further
in the military supply front since the SCC Working Group met on Saturday.
The Turnhalle Conference being held in Southwest Africa has ended.
It has produced the basis of a constitution which leaves all real power
in the hands of the South African Government and provides for an interim
government that may be in place by summer but will be subject to consensus
procedures and hence very limited in what it can do.
SWAPO remains unreconciled, and the results of Turnhalle do not look
like a basis for building a Namibia settlement .
