Report of the Secretary General on the Situation in Southern Africa

Abstract

This report, presented by the Secretary General during the fifty-second ordinary session of the council of ministers from February 19 to 24, 1990, in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, provides a comprehensive analysis of the current situation in Southern Africa. Notable positive developments have emerged since the last session, marking a period of unprecedented change and hope for the region. However, despite these encouraging signs, the report cautions that the overall situation remains precarious and potentially volatile. The ongoing tensions and unresolved issues pose significant risks to stability and peace.
