Mandela Ends Exhausting African Tour With Sweden Visit
Nelson Mandela arrived in Sweden after a fatigue plagued two week four country tour. He spoke at a news conference in Dar es Salaam attributing violence in Ciskei and Bophuthatswana to long standing black opposition to homelands. Mandela said ANC leaders in South Africa can handle the crisis and he will contribute upon return. He noted his first foreign trip since release last month and dismissed links to his freedom with the violence issue. He defended de Klerk's integrity amid questions of talks derailing.

Endara Hunger Strike Highlights Panama Crisis
Panama City reports President Guillermo Endara began an indefinite hunger strike at the Metropolitan Cathedral to dramatize Panamanian misery after the U.S. invasion. He aims to pressure Washington as unemployment soars above 30 percent and many face hunger while aid remains stalled in Congress. Endara says the fast is a gesture of solidarity and religious observance, not a political stunt, and he plans to limit it to Lent while continuing government work from the cathedral.
