Sanctions
Sir,—Bishop Tutu of South Africa was wrong when he declared last year that South African blacks would welcome a Soviet occupation. The Soviet Union has often been admired from afar, but no one goes there to work in the mines. Nor do South African blacks emigrate, legally or illegally, to black-run countries like Mozambique, Angola, or Zimbabwe. The security fences South Africa is now rather anxiously erecting are designed to keep intended immigrants out not, like the Berlin Wall, to keep people in. — Yours, etc.,
DAVID DUMERGUE. July 22, 1986.
