Sanctions remain despite world praises of S. Africa
The Associated Press
LONDON — Britain called yesterday for a swift resolution of sanctions against South Africa to save President F.W. de Klerk from being toppled by a white becklash.
But most other countries said the release Sunday of Black leader Nelson Mandela was not enough to warrant easing sanctions. The 12-nation European Community appeared likely to isolate Britain on the issue, and President Bush said it was too early to talk about lifting sanctions.
Most African nations, including powerful Nigeria, said the continent's last white government had taken a significant step but should still be isolated. However, two West African conservatives, the Ivory Coast and Gabon, urged immediate close ties with South Africa.

The Street Union, which armed Mandela's African National Congress guerrilla movement, and China joined in international expressions of delight at Mandela's freedom.
In London, Foreign Office Minister William Waldegrave said it was "vital to send a signal to the white
community that President de Klerk's steps will find a response from the international community.
If we don't provide any response at all... (you) will surely blame us when the white backlash sweeps de Klerk away. Waldegrave retorted in heated exchanges with opposition Labor Party legislators in the House of Commons.
Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher to write to fellow European Community leaders Sunday seeking an end to a 1986 ban on new investment in South Africa and to a ban on promoting tourism there. European Community foreign ministers will consider the proposal at a Feb. 20 meeting.
Mandela, who walked free Sunday after more than 27 years in jail, said that sanctions and the armed struggle should continue.

In a radio interview, Waldegrave brushed aside the international chorus for continued sanctions. He said the only countries whose positions mattered were the United States, Japan, West Germany and Britain, all major South African trading partners.
Mandela wants equal rights
Blacks call for end to apartheid as ANC leader is released
The Associated Press
JOHANNESBURG, South Africa — When Nelson Mandela walks the streets of Johannesburg after 27 years in prison, he will see signs of dramatic change in the apartheid system. He will also see stark reminders of what has not changed.
Mandela will see Blacks in jobs and areas where they would have been banned a few years ago by apartheid laws enforcing segregation. But he will still be banned from living in white areas, his grandchildren will be banned from white schools, and he and his family will still be registered as Blacks with no political rights.

Apartheid, the legal segregation of South Africa's whites, Blacks, Asians and mixed-race people, still survives in many forms despite efforts by President F. W. de Klerk's to ease the system. The government says it has no immediate plans to abolish apartheid laws segregating residential areas.
Mandela said after leaving prison Sunday that South Africa could never have peace until all vestiges of apartheid were destroyed. "Apartheid's destruction on our subcontinent is incalculable. The fabric of family life of millions of my people has been shattered." he said.
U.S. may lift sanctions on S. Africa
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — President Bush expressed optimism yesterday that South Africa's release of Nelson Mandela was a sign the country was at last on the way to ending apartheid, but he showed no inclination to move quickly to lift U.S. economic sanctions.
sanctions. Bush said at a news conference
that the legislation imposing the sanctions against South Africa also prevented him from ending them until specified liberalizing measures were taken.
"What I want to do is discuss these provisions with Mr. Mandela and withMr. de Klerk," he said referring to the freed Black leader and to South African President F. W. de Klerk,
who ordered his release.
Bush said he had invited both men to the White House separately with no times settled upon.
