UN General Assembly
1979

71. After the fall of the Tombalbaye regime on 13 April 1975, the military regime of General Malloum appealed to the armed opposition for national reconciliation among all the sons of Chad who were divided by internal quarrels. The armed opposition did not remain insensible to that appeal and there were several meetings between the emissaries of the central power and the leaders of the various opposition trends. 72. We mention in particular the meetings at Zurich, Switzerland, and Libreville, Gabon, between the representatives of the Malloum Government and the original FROLINAT. If the expected results did not materialize, those meetings none the less made it possible to establish a dialogue between the Government and the opposition.
