In South Africa, the dialogue now begun between the African National Congress of South Africa (ANC) and the authorities gives us hope that the apartheid system will be dismantled and, in its place, a democratic society that is free from all forms of racial discrimination will arise. In the Arabian Peninsula, we have noted with satisfaction the unification of the people of Yemen. By achieving this unity, the two States have given a pioneering example to the Arab nation. In Asia, we follow with interest the process under way towards the resolution of the Cambodian problem. In this respect, we call on all the parties to continue to show understanding. Nothing else can make it possible for their people to live in peace with themselves and with their neighbours. The recent contacts between the two Koreas give us hope that the Korean people will in their turn rediscover unity.
