6. THE DOCUMENTS, WHICH ARE ALL IN FRENCH, EXCEPT FOR A COPY OF A KISSINGER SPEECH MADE IN LUSAKA IN EARLY 1976, APPEAR TO HAVE ORIGINATED FROM THE CONGOLESE EMBASSY IN MAPUTO, MOZAMBIQUE AND THE CONGOLESE MISSION TO THE UNITED NATIONS. THERE IS A REPORT FROM MONDJO TO HIS GOVERNMENT DESCRIBING HIS IMPRESSIONS OF A
TRIP HE MADE IN JUNE 1976 TO SOUTHERN AFRICA AS A MEMBER OF A
HIGH-LEVEL MISSION OF THE U.N. COMMITTEE FOR DE-COLONISATION. THE MISSION, LED BY THE TANZANIAN PERMANENT REPRESENTATIVE WHO WAS ALSO CHAIRMAN OF THE DE-COLONISATION COMMITTEE, MET
PRESIDENT NYERERE AND ALSO THE VICE PRESIDENT OF BOTSWANA. THE
REPORT DEALS WITH SOUTHERN AFRICAN PROBLEMS AND INCLUDES SOME
UNFAVOURABLE COMMENT ON PAST BRITISH POLICY.
7. A NAUGHTY BUT HARMLESS ANECDOTE ABOUT KISSINGER'S NEGOTIATING
SKILL HAD BEEN INCLUDED BY MONDJO AS AN AMUSING TAILPIECE TO HIS
DESPATCH. THE UNAUTHORISED LEAKING OF THIS TO A CORRESPONDENT HAS
LED THE ''STANDARD'' INTO FLIGHTS OF IMAGINATIVE FANCY.
8. THE DOCUMENTS ARE IN SPECIAL BRANCH'S CARE AS INVESTIGATIONS CONTINUE. THE OTHER ITEMS, LESS THE GUNS AND AMMUNITION, ARE
BEING RETAINED BY HACTL. A FULLER REPORT WILL FOLLOW BY BAG.
