In statements and in response to questions; Archbishop Scott indicates: that the opposition to using sanctions shown by Margaret Thatcher, Prime Minister of Great Britain, may lead to a split within the Commonwealth around the question of apartheid; the Canadian government's position is in support of sanctions in spite of its concern for unity within the Commonwealth; and that the situation in South Africa is becoming more openly explosive. The Archbishop would not comment on his meeting with Nelson Mandela. <30mn>Subjects:APARTHEID~CANADA~INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS~PRESS CONFERENCES~SANCTIONS~SOUTH AFRICA~COMMONWEALTH OF NATIONS~SCOTT, EDWARD Language:EnglishDetailed holdings information: -
