I cannot accept a divide between Malagasy people and a civil war.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The Malagasy people must have the liberty to choose their own future.
What is important is the victory of the people, not of a candidate. We must unite for the good of Madagascar's people, and we are going to succeed.
Only in South Africa could you have a change in government without civil war. If there wasn't the depth of love and caring among our people, this would not have happened.
No one will ever be able to say what the comandantes would have done with their historic opportunity in Nicaragua if they had not been confronted with civil war.
There is a degree of wretchedness and want among the lower class of people which is not anywhere so common as among the Spanish and Portuguese settlements.
The only situation that I can't be in favour of is the lack of respect to human rights in Venezuela.
Reality shows that, contrary to other countries in southern Africa, we have no basis for a classical guerilla struggle. We have never had a hinterland, and we do not expect to.
We live in a global village. No country can live in isolation of others like Robinson Crusoe.
We can't make any statements here. We can't talk about the internal politics of Paraguay.
But now that the guerrilla fighting is over, the Spaniards are again men without a country or families or homes or work, though everyone appreciates very much what they did.
