203. Thus in relation to southern Africa we express our hope that within this Organization or through machinery created by it quick solutions will be found for the following problems which mankind finds more intolerable every day: apartheid, the utmost form of racism, iniquity and injustice; the independence of Namibia, with full respect for its territorial unity and integrity-an independence almost attained thanks to the good of) ices of the five Western members of the Security Council, to whose perseverance we wish to pay a tribute, but an independence which, unfortunately, today still remains a promise loaded with risks of failure; and, lastly, the drama in Zimbabwe where, despite all efforts, it has still not been possible to find a formula that could put an end to a doubly fratricidal war, a war of tragic consequences not only for the people of Zimbabwe but also for the neighbouring countries.
