Wilson pledges Africans share in Rhodesia interim regime
London. Prime Minister Harold Wilson promised Africans will share in any provisional government that replaces the all white Rhodesian regime. An interim Salisbury government would be set up after the white rebellion is crushed, with the governor general and Queen Elizabeth II’s representative leading. Wilson sought a swift return to constitutional rule, while promising a wide spectrum of public opinion in the new regime and the release of political prisoners under safeguards. He warned the rebellion’s end would bring tougher sanctions and noted Parliament would be dissolved once order is restored.
