How do you think Africans responded to the response of the Sharpeville massacre?

History

S_A_V [24]3 years ago
8 0

The Sharpeville massacre was reported worldwide, and received with horror from every quarter. South Africa had already been harshly criticised for its apartheid policies, and this incident fuelled anti-apartheid sentiments as the international conscience was deeply stirred. The United Nations Security Council and governments worldwide condemned the police action and the apartheid policies that prompted this violent assault.  The ANC Vice-President, Oliver Tambo, was secretly driven across the border by Ronel Segal into the then British controlled territory of Bechunaland. He was followed by Dr. Yusuf Dadoo, Chairperson of the South African Indian Congress and Chairperson of the underground South African Communist Party. Both were tasked with mobilizing international financial and diplomatic support for sanctions against South Africa.  On 20 March Nana Mahomo and Peter Molotsi has crossed the border into Bechuanaland to mobilize support for the PAC.  International sympathy lay with the African people, leading to an economic slump as international investors withdrew from South Africa and share prices on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange plummeted.

I think the main point is that Britain had its tentacles spread far and wide, meaning it was involved with a number of countries. This cartoon is Russian propaganda, so I would assume that Russia was worried that Britain was taking over and becoming too powerful.

The united states "wound down" its war involvement by transferring fighting from american to south vietnamese troops, a process
MariettaO [177]

That process was called VIETNAMIZATION.

President Nixon was the one who instituted the Vietnamization policy, which  emphasized that the United States must empower South Vietnamese forces to assume more combat duties.

By the time the US was shifting emphasis to this sort of policy, it was too late to stave off the victory of the North Vietnamese and Viet Cong forces.  The US eventually withdrew its forces from Vietnam in 1973, and by 1975, Saigon (in South Vietnam) fell to the North Vietnamese communist forces.
