A. Certainly there is a possibility. You have individuals and certain groups. They have already betrayed their presence. Our attitude is that a dissatisfied individual or small group is not entitled to take up arms against the government. In principle. Practically, it would be foolish. But we also say that in the extreme, there may arise a situation where the whole white community considers itself threatened. Then our approach is that these people should act via their representatives. I don't want to elaborate on that. I don't speculate on that. I tell my own people, now the government offers the possibility of a general election or a referendum. I say, don't be caught out. Be prepared to have a majority.
Q. De Klerk is improving South Africa's image overseas. How would the world react if the Conservative Party came to power and changed course?
A. De Klerk has not obtained decisions for the abolition of sanctions and boycotts. They want him to deliver the goods in terms of an irreversible political reform. I don't regard it as reform. I would use a strong word. It is the betrayal of the right of a nation, for the sake of a unitary state that would be acceptable to certain people abroad.
