DIRECTIVE NUMBER 3-87
Southern Africa 185
The year 1986 saw several significant developments affecting our
posture in Southern Africa: the State of Emergency in South
Africa; the U.S. sanctions legislation; the death of Samora
Machel; U.S. aid to UNITA; the suspension of the 435/CTW
negotiations with Angola; and the breakdown of the Nkomati
accords. In light of these developments, this directive
establishes the terms of reference for an interagency review of
our policy with an emphasis on (a) a reexamination of U.S.
interests in the region, and (b) possible new approaches which
might enhance those interests. (8)
