The Mustaqillikning bir tomonlama deklaratsiyasi (UDI) tomonidan qabul qilingan bayonot edi Rodeziya kabineti buni e'lon qilib, 1965 yil 11-noyabrda Rodeziya,[n 1] bo'lgan Afrikaning janubidagi Britaniya hududi o'zini o'zi boshqargan 1923 yildan beri o'zini mustaqil deb bildi suveren davlat. Buyuk Britaniya va Rodeziya hukumatlari o'rtasida uzoq mustaqil bo'lish shartlari bo'yicha uzoq davom etgan nizoning avj nuqtasi, bu birinchi bo'ldi bir tomonlama tanaffus buyon Buyuk Britaniyadan koloniyalaridan biri tomonidan Amerika Qo'shma Shtatlarining mustaqillik deklaratsiyasi 1776 yilda. Buyuk Britaniya, Hamdo'stlik va Birlashgan Millatlar Tashkiloti hammasi Rodeziyaning UDIni noqonuniy deb topdi va BMT tarixida birinchi bo'lib iqtisodiy sanktsiyalar ajratilgan mustamlakaga qarshi qo'llanildi. To'liq xalqaro izolyatsiya sharoitida Rodeziya davom etdi tan olinmagan holat Janubiy Afrika va Portugaliya ko'magida.

Rodeziya hukumati, bu asosan mamlakat a'zolaridan iborat edi oq 5% bo'lgan ozchilik Buyuk Britaniyaning mustamlaka hukumati o'rtasida g'azablandi O'zgarishlar shamoli siyosati dekolonizatsiya, Shimoliy Afrikadagi kam rivojlangan mustamlakalar, o'z-o'zini boshqarish tajribasiga ega bo'lmagan holda, 1960-yillarning boshlarida tezda mustaqillikka erishdi, yangi ko'tarilgan printsipga ko'ra Rodeziya suverenitetdan bosh tortdi.ko'pchilik hukmronligidan oldin mustaqillik yo'q "(" NIBMAR "). Aksariyat oq Rodeziya aholisi o'zini qirq yillik o'zini o'zi boshqarish tizimidan keyin o'zlarini mustaqillik deb hisoblashgan va Buyuk Britaniya hukumati ularni ushlab qolish orqali ularga xiyonat qilayotganini his qilishgan. Bu mustamlaka hukumatining hokimiyatni qora tanga topshirishni keskin istamasligi bilan birlashdi. Rodeziyaliklar - irqiy ziddiyatlarning namoyon bo'lishi, Sovuq urush antikommunizm va qo'rquv a Kongo tarzidagi vakillarga qarshi urush natijada - agar Buyuk Britaniya mustaqillik bermagan bo'lsa, Rodeziya uni bir tomonlama qabul qilish bilan oqlanishi mumkin degan taassurot qoldirishi mumkin.

Britaniya va Rodeziya bosh vazirlari o'rtasida tanglik yuzaga keldi, Garold Uilson va Yan Smit mos ravishda, 1964 va 1965 yillar orasida. Bahs, asosan, Buyuk Britaniyaning mustaqillik shartlari "umuman mamlakat xalqi uchun" maqbul bo'lishi sharti bilan o'ralgan; Smit buni qondirdi deb da'vo qildi, Buyuk Britaniya va qora tanli Rodeziya rahbarlari buni bajarmagan deb hisoblashdi. Uilson 1965 yil oktyabr oyi oxirida Buyuk Britaniyaning Rodosiya parlamentidagi kelajakdagi qora tanli vakillarini mustamlaka hukumatining o'tkazib yuborilgan vakolatlarini qaytarib olish yo'li bilan himoya qilishi mumkinligi to'g'risida taklif qilganidan so'ng, Rodeziyaliklar qabul qilib bo'lmaydigan deb topgan tergov Qirollik komissiyasining shartlarini taqdim etdi, Smit va uning kabineti mustaqillikni e'lon qildi. Buni xoin deb atab, inglizlar mustamlakachi gubernator, Ser Xamfri Gibbs, Smit va uning hukumatini rasman ishdan bo'shatdi, ammo ular unga e'tibor bermay, tayinladilar "Hukumatni boshqaruvchi amaldor "uning o'rnini egallash uchun.

UDIni hech bir mamlakat tan olmagan bo'lsa-da, Rodeziya Oliy sudi UDIdan keyingi hukumatni qonuniy va de-yure 1968 yilda. Smit ma'muriyati dastlab sodiqligini ta'kidladi Qirolicha Yelizaveta II, lekin 1970 yilda respublikani chet elda tan olinishi uchun muvaffaqiyatsiz urinish e'lon qilganida tark etdi. The Rodeziya Bush urushi, hukumat va ikki raqib kommunistlar tomonidan qo'llab-quvvatlanadigan qora Rodeziya guruhlari o'rtasidagi partizan mojarosi, ikki yildan so'ng jiddiy boshlandi va urushni tugatish uchun bir necha urinishlardan so'ng Smit Ichki aholi punkti 1978 yilda militsiyasiz millatchilar bilan. Ushbu shartlarga ko'ra mamlakat qora hukmronlik davrida qayta tiklandi Zimbabve Rodeziya 1979 yil iyun oyida, ammo bu yangi buyruq partizanlar va xalqaro hamjamiyat tomonidan rad etildi. Bush urushi Zimbabve Rodeziya uning UDI qismini bekor qilganiga qadar davom etdi Lancaster House shartnomasi 1979 yil dekabrda. Buyuk Britaniyaning to'g'ridan-to'g'ri hukmronligining qisqa muddatidan so'ng, mamlakat ushbu nom ostida xalqaro miqyosda tan olingan mustaqillikka erishdi Zimbabve 1980 yilda.

Janubiy Rodeziya (yoki Rodeziya ), Afrika xaritasida qizil rang bilan belgilangan

Afrikaning janubiy hududi Rodeziya, rasmiy ravishda Janubiy Rodeziya,[n 1] bu noyob voqea edi Britaniya imperiyasi va Hamdo'stlik: garchi nomidan mustamlaka bo'lsa ham, u ichki edi o'zini o'zi boshqarish va konstitutsiyaviy jihatdan a dan farq qilmaydi hukmronlik.[4] Ushbu holat 1923 yilga to'g'ri keladi mas'ul hukumat o'ttiz yillik davrdan keyin imperiya tarkibida o'zini o'zi boshqaradigan mustamlaka sifatida boshqaruv va rivojlanish tomonidan Britaniyaning Janubiy Afrika kompaniyasi.[5] Angliya Janubiy Rodeziya bilan integratsiyani niyat qilgan edi Janubiy Afrika Ittifoqi yangi viloyat sifatida, ammo bu 1922 yilda ro'yxatdan o'tgan saylovchilar tomonidan rad etilgan hukumat referendumi, uning o'rniga istiqbolli hukmronlik shakllandi.[6] Bu deyarli barcha jihatlarda, shu jumladan mudofaada o'z ishlarini yuritishga vakolatli edi.[n 2]

Uaytxoll 1923 yil konstitutsiyasiga binoan Janubiy Rodeziya ustidan vakolatlari, qog'ozda juda katta edi; Britaniya toji nazariy jihatdan bir yil ichida qabul qilingan qonun loyihasini bekor qilishi yoki konstitutsiyani xohlaganicha o'zgartirishi mumkin edi. Ushbu himoyalangan vakolatlar mahalliy aholini himoya qilishga qaratilgan edi qora tanli afrikaliklar kamsituvchi qonunchilikdan va mustamlakadagi Britaniyaning tijorat manfaatlarini himoya qilish;[4] lekin kabi Kler Palley uning konstitutsiyaviy tarixidagi sharhlar, Uaytxoll uchun bunday harakatlarni amalga oshirish juda qiyin bo'lgan va bunga urinish, ehtimol inqirozga sabab bo'lishi mumkin edi.[7] Tadbirda ular hech qachon mashq qilinmagan. Uaytxoll bilan mustamlaka hukumati va davlat xizmati o'rtasida odatda kooperativ munosabatlar rivojlandi Solsberi, va nizo kamdan-kam hollarda bo'lgan.[4]

1923 yilgi konstitutsiya irqiy bo'lmagan ma'noda tuzilgan va u tuzgan saylov tizimi hech bo'lmaganda nazariy jihatdan xuddi shunday ochiq edi. Shaxsiy daromad, ma'lumot va mol-mulk bo'yicha ovoz berish malakasi, shunga o'xshash narsalarga o'xshash Cape Malakali Franchise, barchaga bir xil darajada tatbiq etilgan, ammo aksariyat qora tanlilar belgilangan standartlarga javob bermaganligi sababli, saylovlar ro'yxati ham, mustamlakachi parlament ham aksariyat oq ozchilikni taxminan 5%.[8][9] Natijada, agar qora tanli manfaatlar kamdan-kam hollarda namoyish etilsa, aksariyat koloniya oqsillari o'zgarishga unchalik qiziqish bildirmaydilar;[8] ular aksariyat qora tanlilar G'arb uslubidagi siyosiy jarayonlarga qiziqish bildirmadilar va agar ular o'z zimmalariga olsalar, to'g'ri boshqarolmaydilar, deb da'vo qildilar.[10] Kabi veksellar 1930 yildagi erlarni taqsimlash to'g'risidagi qonun mamlakatning qariyb yarmini oq tanga egalik qilish va yashash uchun ajratib, qolgan qismini qora tanlilarga sotib olish, qabilalar ishonchi va milliy hududlarga ajratish, oq tanli ozchilikka nisbatan har xil tarafkashlik qilgan.[8] Oq ko'chmanchilar va ularning avlodlari mustamlakaning ma'muriy, ishlab chiqarish, ilmiy va dehqonchilik qobiliyatlarining ko'p qismini ta'minladilar va nisbatan muvozanatli, qisman sanoatlashganlarni qurishdi. bozor iqtisodiyoti, kuchli qishloq xo'jaligi va ishlab chiqarish tarmoqlari, temir va po'lat sanoati va zamonaviy tog'-kon korxonalari bilan maqtanish.[11] Kundalik hayot belgilangan edi kamsitish oq tanlilar uchun ish joylarini band qilishdan tortib mayda ajratish poezdlar, pochta aloqasi navbatlari va shunga o'xshash narsalar.[12] Oq tanlilar eng yaxshi qishloq xo'jaligi erlarining ko'p qismiga egalik qildilar va juda yuqori ma'lumotga ega edilar, ish haqi va uylariga ega edilar, ammo qora tanli rodeziyaliklar uchun maktab, sog'liqni saqlash, infratuzilma va maoshlar afsonaviy standartlarga muvofiq juda yaxshi edi.[13]

Kengroq imperatorlik sharoitida Janubiy Rodeziya o'ziga tegishli bo'lgan "maxsus kvazi mustaqil maqomi" tufayli o'ziga toifani egallagan.[14] The Dominions Office, 1925 yilda Buyuk Britaniyaning Avstraliya, Kanada, Yangi Zelandiya dominionlari bilan munosabatlarini boshqarish uchun tuzilgan, Nyufaundlend, Janubiy Afrika va Irlandiyaning Ozod shtati, shuningdek, Janubiy Rodeziya bilan shug'ullangan va Imperatorlik konferentsiyalari Janubiy Rodeziyani o'z ichiga olgan Bosh Vazir dan dominionlar bilan bir qatorda 1932.[14] Ushbu noyob kelishuv paydo bo'lganidan keyin ham davom etdi Hamdo'stlik Bosh vazirlarining konferentsiyalari 1944 yilda.[15] Barcha irqlarning Janubiy Rodeziya aholisi Ikkinchi jahon urushida Buyuk Britaniya uchun kurashgan va mustamlaka hukumati asta-sekin tashqi ishlarga nisbatan ko'proq avtonomiyalar oldi.[4] Urushdan keyingi bevosita yillarda Janubiy Rodeziya siyosatchilari odatda o'zlari kabi mustaqil ekanliklarini va hukmronlik ko'rinishidagi to'liq muxtoriyat ularga ozgina farq qiladi deb o'ylashdi.[16] Urushdan keyingi Janubiy Rodeziyaga immigratsiya, asosan Buyuk Britaniya, Irlandiya va Janubiy Afrikadan kelib chiqqan holda, oq tanlilar jamoasi 1941 yilda 68954 kishidan 1961 yilda 221504 gacha o'sishiga sabab bo'ldi. Shu davrda qora tanli aholi 1400000 dan 3.550.000 gacha o'sdi.[9] Rodeziya hukumati ularning sonini ko'paytirish uchun immigratsiya va oqlarning ko'payishini faol ravishda rag'batlantirmoqda oilani rejalashtirish qora tanlilar sonini qisqartirishlari uchun. Ular hududning demografik tarkibini o'zgartirib, yanada kuchliroq mavqega ega bo'lishlariga umid qilishdi, undan Angliya hukumatiga ko'proq muxtoriyat so'rab murojaat qilishdi.[17]

Federatsiya va o'zgarish shamoli

To'liq hukmronlik maqomining samarali ramziy bo'lishiga ishonish va "so'raladigan joyda",[16] Bosh Vazir Godfri Xaggins (1933 yildan 1953 yilgacha bo'lgan lavozimda) ikki marta Britaniya hukmronligiga ishora qilgan overtureslarini e'tiborsiz qoldirdi,[18] va o'rniga dastlab yarim mustaqil Federatsiyani ta'qib qildi Shimoliy Rodeziya va Nyasaland, to'g'ridan-to'g'ri Londondan boshqariladigan ikkita koloniya.[18] U Afrikaning janubi-markazida yagona birlashgan hukmronlikni yaratishni yo'lga qo'yishi mumkin deb umid qildi Avstraliya Federatsiyasi yarim asr oldin.[n 3] The Rodeziya va Nyasaland federatsiyasi Konstitutsiyasida erimaydigan deb belgilangan,[20] 1953 yilda boshlangan, asosan oq tanlilar tomonidan topshirilgan referendum, uchta hududning eng rivojlangani bo'lgan Janubiy Rodeziya bilan, uning boshida Xuggins Federal Bosh vazir va Solsberi Federal poytaxt sifatida.[21][n 4]

Boshida keladi dekolonizatsiya keyinchalik, to'g'ridan-to'g'ri boshqariladigan ikki Britaniya protektoratlari bo'lgan Janubiy Rodeziya o'zini o'zi boshqarish federatsiyasi keyinchalik ingliz tarixchisi tomonidan tasvirlangan Robert Bleyk "tarixning buzilishi - hodisalarning muqarrar rivojlanishidan qiziquvchan og'ish" sifatida.[23] Loyiha boshidanoq qora qarama-qarshiliklarga duch keldi va oxir-oqibat xalqaro munosabatlarning o'zgarishi va 1950-yillarning oxiri va 1960-yillarning boshlarida qora Rodeziya ambitsiyalari ko'tarilishi tufayli muvaffaqiyatsizlikka uchradi, ko'pincha birgalikda O'zgarishlar shamoli.[24] Britaniya, Frantsiya va Belgiya mustamlakachilik hukmronligi endi geosiyosiy yoki axloqiy jihatdan barqaror emas deb hisoblab, Afrikadan chiqib ketishini juda tezlashtirdi. "G'oyasiko'pchilik hukmronligidan oldin mustaqillik yo'q "odatda" NIBMAR "deb qisqartirilgan bo'lib, Britaniya siyosiy doiralarida katta mavqega ega bo'ldi.[25] 1956 yilda Xaggins (u yaqinda Lord Malvern nomi bilan tanlangan) Britaniyadan Federatsiyani dominionga aylantirishni so'raganida, unga rad javobi berildi. Muxolifat Dominion partiyasi Federalni qayta-qayta chaqirish bilan javob berdi mustaqillikni bir tomonlama e'lon qilish Keyingi bir necha yil ichida (UDI).[26] Lord Malvern 1956 yil oxirida iste'foga chiqqandan so'ng, uning o'rnini egalladi Ser Roy Welenskiy kamida uch marta bunday harakat haqida o'ylardi.[n 5]

Janubiy Rodeziya mustaqilligi uchun ishni ilgari surishga urinish, ayniqsa Federal tarqatib yuborilgan taqdirda,[26] Janubiy Rodeziya Bosh vaziri Ser Edgar Uaytxed 1961 yilgi konstitutsiya bilan Britaniya bilan vositachilik qildi va u Britaniyaning Janubiy Rodeziya qonunlari va qonun hujjatlaridagi barcha bronlashtirish vakolatlarini olib tashlaydi deb o'ylardi;[28] va mamlakatni to'liq suverenitet yoqasiga qo'ydi.[29] Mustaqillik kafolatlariga ega bo'lmaganiga qaramay, Uaytxed, Uelenskiy va ushbu konstitutsiyaning boshqa tarafdorlari uni Janubiy Rodeziya saylovchilariga "mustaqillik konstitutsiyasi" sifatida taqdim etishdi, unga ko'ra agar Federatsiya bo'lsa, Janubiy Rodeziya Avstraliya, Kanada va Yangi Zelandiya bilan bir qatorda dominionga aylanadi. eritilgan.[30] Oq tanqidchilar kiritilgan Yan Smit, Deputat uchun Gvanda va Bosh qamchi boshqaruv uchun Birlashgan Federal partiya Konstitutsiyaning Janubiy Rodeziya mustaqilligi to'g'risidagi aniq va'dasini Federal tarqatib yuborilgan taqdirda chiqarib tashlaganligini istisno qilgan Federal Majlisda (UFP) va oxir-oqibat norozilik sifatida o'z lavozimini tark etdi.[29] A referendum aksariyat oq tanli saylovchilarning 1961 yil 26 iyuldagi 65% ko'pchilik ovozi bilan yangi konstitutsiyani ma'qulladi.[31] Konstitutsiyaning yakuniy versiyasiga inglizlar tomonidan kiritilgan bir nechta qo'shimcha qoidalar kiritildi, ulardan biri - 111-bo'lim - Janubiy Rodeziya konstitutsiyasining ayrim qismlarini o'zgartirish, qo'shish yoki bekor qilish uchun tojga to'liq vakolatlarni saqlab qoldi. Kengashda buyurtma Britaniya hukumatining iltimosiga binoan. Bu hujjatning boshqa joylarida tasvirlangan ingliz kuchlaridan voz kechishni amalda bekor qildi, ammo Janubiy Rodeziyaliklar dastlab buni sezmadilar.[32]

1950-yillarning oxirlarida shahar qora tanli elitalari tomonidan tashkil etilgan va tashkil etilgan Janubiy Rodeziyadagi qora Rodeziya harakati,[33] kampaniyasini xarakterlovchi siyosiy zo'ravonlik, sanoat sabotaji va qora tanli saylovchilarni qo'rqitish sababli mustamlaka hukumati tomonidan bir necha bor taqiqlangan.[34] Boshchiligidagi asosiy millatchi guruh Bulawayo kasaba uyushma xodimi Joshua Nkomo, har bir taqiqdan keyin qayta tashkil etilishi bilan o'zini o'zgartirdi va 1962 yil boshida "deb nomlandi Zimbabve Afrika xalqlari ittifoqi (ZAPU).[35][n 6] Qora siyosiy yordamni olishga harakat qilib, Uaytxed irqiy kamsituvchi qonunchilikka, shu jumladan, qator islohotlarni taklif qildi Erlarni taqsimlash to'g'risidagi qonun va agar UFP keyingi Janubiy Rodeziya saylovlarida g'olib chiqsa, buni amalga oshirishga va'da berdi.[41] Ammo ZAPU tomonidan bo'lajak qora tanli saylovchilarni qo'rqitish O'FPning ularni qo'llab-quvvatlashga intilishlariga to'sqinlik qildi,[42] va oq tanli jamoatchilikning aksariyati Uaytxedni o'ta radikal va qora ekstremizm deb bilganlariga yumshoq deb qarashgan. In 1962 yil dekabrda Janubiy Rodeziyada saylovlar, O'FP mag'lubiyatga uchradi Rodeziya fronti (RF), boshchiligidagi konservativ ovozlarning yangi tuzilgan ittifoqi Uinston Fild va Yan Smit, bu shok natijasi sifatida keng tarqalgan.[43] Fild Bosh vazir bo'ldi, Smit uning o'rinbosari sifatida.[44]

Federal tarqatib yuborish; ishonchsizlikning ildizlari

Ayni paytda, separatist qora Rodeziya partiyalari Shimoliy Rodeziya va Nyasalandda saylovlarda g'alaba qozonishdi,[44] va Garold Makmillan "s Konservativ Britaniyadagi ma'muriyat Federatsiyani buzib bo'lmaydigan tomonga o'tib, uni tarqatib yuborishga intildi. 1962 yil fevral oyida inglizlar Hamdo'stlik aloqalari bo'yicha davlat kotibi, Dunkan Sandis, yashirin ravishda Nyasaland millatchi rahbariga xabar berdi Xastings Banda bu ajralib chiqishga yo'l qo'yiladi. Bir necha kundan keyin u Welenskiyni dahshatga solib, unga "biz inglizlar boshqaruv irodasini yo'qotdik" deb aytdi.[45] "Ammo bizda yo'q", deb javob qildi Julian Grinfild, Welenskiyning qonun vaziri.[46][n 7] Makmillanniki Bosh vazir o'rinbosari va Birinchi davlat kotibi, R A Butler Buyuk Britaniyaning Federatsiya ustidan nazoratini boshqargan,[48] 1962 yil dekabrida Nyasalendning ajralib chiqish huquqini rasman e'lon qildi.[20] To'rt oy o'tgach, u uchta hududga Federatsiyaning kelajagini hal qilish uchun konferentsiya chaqirishi haqida xabar berdi.[49]

1953 yilda Janubiy Rodeziya Buyuk Britaniyaning Federatsiyani tashkil etishda qonunchilik sherigi bo'lganligi sababli, Janubiy Rodeziya bilan hamkorlik qilmasdan Britaniyaning ittifoqni tarqatib yuborishi mumkin emas edi (yoki hech bo'lmaganda juda qiyin). Shunday qilib, Field inglizlarni konferentsiyada ishtirok etishdan bosh tortib, uning mamlakatiga to'liq mustaqillik berishga va'da bermaguncha xalaqit berishi mumkin.[49] Fild, Smit va boshqa RF siyosatchilarining so'zlariga ko'ra, Butler anjumanda ularning hamkorligini ta'minlash uchun og'zaki ravishda bir nechta bunday kafolatlarni bergan, ammo bir necha marta qog'ozda hech narsa berishdan bosh tortgan.[n 8] Janubiy Rodeziyaliklarning ta'kidlashicha, Butler yozma va'da berishdan bosh tortganini Uaytxollning so'ziga emas, balki hujjat bilan bog'lashi Hamdo'stlikning "ishonch ruhiga" zid bo'ladi, deb aytdi - Fild oxir-oqibat qabul qilgan dalil.[50] "Siz ta'kidlagan ishonchni eslaylik", - deya ogohlantirdi Smit, Fildning akkauntida Butlerga barmog'ini silkitib. "Agar buzsangiz, afsuslanib yashaysiz."[51] Bo'lib o'tgan konferentsiyada Janubiy Rodeziya ishtirok etdi Viktoriya sharsharasi 1963 yil 28 iyundan boshlab bir hafta davomida va boshqa narsalar qatorida yil oxirida Federatsiyani rasmiy ravishda tugatish to'g'risida kelishib olindi.[52] In Jamiyat palatasi keyinchalik, Butler Janubiy Rodeziyaga yashirin va'dalar bilan Federal tarqatib yuborish g'ildiraklarini "moylagan" degan takliflarni qat'iyan rad etdi.[50]

Fild hukumati Buyuk Britaniyaning 1963 yil oktyabr oyida Nyasalandning 1964 yil 6 iyulda to'liq mustaqil bo'lishini e'lon qilishidan qo'rqib ketdi. Shimoliy Rodeziya davlatchiligining sanasi belgilanmagan bo'lsa-da, umuman olganda, ko'p o'tmay, uning amal qilishi kutilmoqda. Smit zudlik bilan Londonga jo'natildi va u erda Janubiy Rodeziyaning mustaqilligi bo'yicha yangi Britaniya bosh vaziri bilan muzokaralar olib bordi, Ser Alek Duglas-Uy.[n 9] Xuddi shu davrda, 1961 yilgi konstitutsiyaning 111-bo'limi mavjudligi va ahamiyati Janubiy Rodeziyada paydo bo'ldi va siyosiy doiralarda kelajakdagi Britaniya hukumati, agar u shunday moyil bo'lsa, Solsberi uchun uning roziligisiz qonun chiqarishi bilan avvalgi konventsiyalarga qarshi chiqishi mumkin degan taxminlarni keltirib chiqardi. , berilgan vakolatlarni qaytarib olish yoki Janubiy Rodeziya konstitutsiyasini boshqa yo'l bilan o'zgartirish. Qo'rqaman Mehnat partiyasi agar u Britaniyaning navbatdagi umumiy saylovlarida g'alaba qozongan bo'lsa (1964 yil oxirlarida rejalashtirilgan), Janubiy Rodeziyaliklar Angliya saylov uchastkalariga borguncha mustaqillikni qo'lga kiritishga umid qilib, Nyasalenddan keyin emas, o'z sa'y-harakatlarini kuchaytirdilar.[54] Federatsiya 1963 yil oxirida rejalashtirilgan tarzda tarqatib yuborildi.[54]

Lavozimlar va motivatsiyalar

Britaniya hukumati pozitsiyasi

1961 yilgi konstitutsiyaga binoan Buyuk Britaniya hukumatining Janubiy Rodeziyaga mustaqillik berishni rad etishi asosan Buyuk Britaniyaning opprobriumdan qochish va Birlashgan Millatlar Tashkilotidagi (BMT) obro'sini yo'qotish istagi bilan birgalikda O'zgarishlar shamoli bilan bog'liq bo'lgan geosiyosiy va axloqiy o'zgarishlarning natijasi bo'ldi. va Hamdo'stlik.[55] Ushbu masala Afrikada va butun dunyoda dekolonizatsiya va irqchilik masalalarida yorqin nuqta sifatida xalqaro e'tiborni qozondi.[56] 1960 yillarning boshlariga kelib, mustamlakadan keyingi BMTda umumiy konsensus, xususan Bosh assambleya, qaerda kommunistik blok va Afro-Osiyo qabulxonasi birgalikda juda kuchli edilar - mustamlakachilikning har qanday shakllarini har tomonlama qoraladilar va Afrikaning janubiy qismida kommunistlar tomonidan qo'llab-quvvatlanadigan qora millatchi qo'zg'olonlarni qo'llab-quvvatladilar, ularni irqiy ozodlik harakati deb bildilar. Orasida Sovuq urush, Britaniya tarqalishiga qarshi chiqdi Sovet va Xitoyning Afrikaga ta'siri, ammo Janubiy Rodeziya masalasida NIBMARdan norozilik bildirsa yoki orqaga chekinsa, bu xalqaro pariahga aylanishini bilar edi.[57] Bir paytlar Janubiy Rodeziya mavzusi BMT va boshqa organlarda, xususan Afrika birligi tashkiloti (OAU), hatto joriy vaziyat xalqaro miqyosda qabul qilinishi mumkin emas deb topildi va Buyuk Britaniya hukumatiga katta noqulaylik tug'dirdi.[58]

Hamdo'stlik sharoitida ham Angliya Janubiy Rodeziyaga shunchaki mustaqillik berish haqida gap bo'lishi mumkin emasligini bilar edi, chunki ko'plab Afro-Osiyo davlatlari ham Hamdo'stlikka a'zo edi. Ko'pchilik hukmronligi bo'lmagan Solsberi uchun davlatchilik Hamdo'stlikni ikkiga bo'lib yuborishi va ehtimol uning tarqalishiga olib kelishi mumkin, bu Britaniya tashqi siyosati uchun halokatli istiqboldir.[55] Hamdo'stlik, Janubiy Rodeziyaga bo'ysunmaslik davom etsa, Buyuk Britaniyani to'g'ridan-to'g'ri aralashishga chaqirdi,[59] Britaniyadagi liberallar agar tekshirilmasa, Solsberi Janubiy Afrika uslubiga o'tishi mumkinligidan xavotirda edi aparteid.[60] Janubiy Rodeziya va Hamdo'stlik o'rtasida tanlov o'tkazmaslikdan xavotirga tushgan Uaytxoll ikkalasi o'rtasida o'rta yo'l bilan muzokaralar olib borishga urindi, ammo oxir-oqibat ularni muhimroq deb bilgan holda xalqaro fikrlarni birinchi o'ringa qo'ydi.[55]

Partiya darajasida, Leyboristlar partiyasi, 1964 yil oktyabrgacha oppozitsiyada bo'lib, 1961 yil konstitutsiyasiga binoan Janubiy Rodeziyaning mustaqilligiga qarshi chiqdi va mafkuraviy va axloqiy asosda qora Rodeziya harakatini qo'llab-quvvatladi. The Liberal partiya parlamentning bir nechta o'rindiqlarini egallab, xuddi shunday pozitsiyani egalladi. Konservativ partiya, shuningdek, dekolonizatsiya siyosatiga amal qilgan holda, Janubiy Rodeziya hukumatining pozitsiyasiga nisbatan ko'proq xushyoqar edi va uni ochiqchasiga qo'llab-quvvatlaydigan a'zolarni o'z ichiga oldi.[61][n 10]

Janubiy Rodeziya hukumatining ko'rinishi

Janubiy Rodeziya hukumati Buyuk Britaniyaning Shimoliy Rodeziya va Nyasalanddan kam rivojlangan hududlarni, o'z-o'zini boshqarish tajribasi kam bo'lgan mustaqil davlatlarni tuzayotgani g'alati deb topdi, shu bilan birga Federatsiyaning eng katta sherigi bo'lgan mustaqil davlat bo'lgan Janubiy Rodeziyadan suveren davlatchilikni saqlab qoldi. Afrikadagi eng gullab-yashnagan va rivojlangan mamlakatlardan biri bo'lgan to'rt o'n yillik boshqaruv. Ko'pchilik hukmronligi printsipi, bu ravshan kelishmovchilikning asosini Janubiy Rodeziyaliklar ahamiyatsiz deb hisoblashgan.[64] Ular Federal tarqatib yuborilgan taqdirda 1961 yilgi konstitutsiyaga jiddiy o'zgartirishlar kiritmasdan mustaqillikka erishish uchun birinchi navbatda bo'lishlarini taxmin qilishgan, bu avvalgi hukumatlararo yozishmalar, xususan Butlerdan olgan deb da'vo qilgan og'zaki va'dalari bilan ularga taassurot qoldirgan. Yaqinlashib kelayotganini isbotlamaganida, ular aldanganligini his qilishdi.[65] Solsberi, asosan oq tanli qonun chiqaruvchi, qora tanli Rodeziya rahbarlaridan ko'ra mustaqillikka ko'proq loyiqdir, deb da'vo qildi, chunki u o'nlab yillar davomida o'zini o'zi boshqarish qobiliyatini isbotladi.[66]

RF shimolda ko'pchilik tomonidan boshqariladigan yangi Afrika davlatlarini qiynagan qonli fuqarolik urushlari, harbiy to'ntarishlar va boshqa ofatlar, ularning ko'plari mustaqillikka erishganidan ko'p o'tmay korrupsiyaga botgan, avtokratik yoki kommunistik bir partiyali davlatlarga aylangan deb da'vo qilmoqda.[67] qora tanli Rodeziya rahbarlari boshqaruvga tayyor emasligini ko'rsatdi. Janubdan qochgan oq qochoqlar kuchli ta'sir ko'rsatdi Kongo, Janubiy Rodeziyada qora Rodeziya hukmronligi nimani anglatishi mumkinligi haqida xaotik qiyomat ssenariylarini taqdim etdi, ayniqsa oq tanli jamoat uchun.[68] RF tarafdorlari erga egalik qilish va ajratish bo'yicha qora Rodeziya shikoyatlarini kamsitib, ichki siyosatdagi irqiy nomutanosiblikka qaramay - oq tanlilar aholining 5 foizini tashkil qilgan, ammo ro'yxatdan o'tgan saylovchilarning 90 foizidan ko'prog'i saylov tizimidagi kabi irqchi emas edi. franchayzing millatiga emas, balki moliyaviy va ta'lim sifatiga asoslangan edi.[69] Ular Buyuk Britaniyaning nomidan koloniyaning faxrli urush rekordini ta'kidladilar,[70] va Sovuq urush sharoitida antikommunistik, pro-kommunistik shakllanish istagini bildirdi.G'arbiy Janubiy Afrika va Portugaliya bilan bir qatorda Afrikada.[71]

Ushbu omillar RF siyosatchilari va tarafdorlari tomonidan Angliya dekadentsiyasi, hicanery va xiyonat deb bilgan narsalar bilan birlashdilar, chunki UDI qonuniy ravishda shubhali va xalqaro shov-shuvlarni qo'zg'atishi mumkin bo'lsa-da, ularning nazarida haqli va yaxshi bo'lishi uchun zarur bo'lishi mumkin. agar Whitehall bilan turar joy topilmasa, mamlakat va mintaqa.[72]

UDI ga yo'l

Birinchi qadamlar, maydon ostida

Federatsiyaning tugashi bilan bir vaqtda Fildning mustaqillikni ta'minlay olmaganligi uning kabinetining 1963 yil oxiri va 1964 yil boshlarida uni qo'llab-quvvatlashiga olib keldi.[54] RF kokus 1964 yil yanvar oyida inglizlar uni hiyla-nayrang qilgandek tuyulganligi sababli unga nisbatan keng norozilikni ochib berishdi. Mustamlaka mustaqilligini qo'lga kiritish uchun Bosh vazirga katta bosim o'tkazildi.[72] O'sha oyning oxirida Fild Angliyaga safar qilib, Duglas-Xom va Sendisni mustaqillik uchun bosdi va UDI ehtimolini bir necha bor ko'tarib chiqdi, ammo 2 fevral kuni quruq qaytdi.[73]

Sandys unga Mustaqillikning e'lon qilinishiga qarshi Hamdo'stlik munosabati haqida ogohlantiruvchi xat yozganidan so'ng, RF Fild ortida birlashdi, ammo Bosh vazir keyinchalik hech bo'lmaganda mumkin bo'lgan yo'lni bosib o'tib, partiyasining ishonchini yo'qotdi. amalda tomonidan ishlab chiqilgan mustaqillik Desmond Lardner-Burk uchun, advokat va RF deputati Gwelo. 1964 yil mart oyida Solsberidagi Qonunchilik Assambleyasi Lardner-Burkning gubernator, Ser Xamfri Gibbs, Qirolichaga 1961 yilgi konstitutsiyaning 111-qismini o'zgartirish to'g'risida iltimosnoma yuborishi kerak Royal Assent u erda tasvirlangan Britaniyalik hamkasbining o'rniga Janubiy Rodeziya hukumatining iltimosiga binoan amalga oshiriladi. Bu ham Britaniyaning qonunchilik aralashuvi ehtimolini olib tashlaydi va ham Kengashdagi Buyurtma bilan mustaqillikni qabul qilishga urinish uchun yo'l ochadi.[n 11]

RFning maqsadi qisman Gibbs unga Royal Assentni berganidan keyin inglizlar ushbu qonun loyihasini blokirovka qilishga urinish yoki qilmasligini sinab ko'rish edi.[76] ammo bu masala hech qachon hal bo'lmadi, chunki Sandis Fildni bir ovozdan qabul qilinmaganligi sababli uni Gibbsga tasdiqlash uchun yubormaslikka ishontirdi.[77] Lord Solsberi, Janubiy Rodeziyaning Britaniyadagi asosiy tarafdorlaridan biri, Fildning xatti-harakatlaridan umidsizlikka tushib, Welenskiyga ko'ra, "mustaqillikni e'lon qilishning oddiy vaqti, to'g'ri yoki noto'g'ri bo'lsin, Federatsiya tugaganida bo'lar edi".[75] RF iyerarxiyasi Fildning ushbu so'nggi orqaga qaytishini u mustaqillik masalasida inglizlarga jiddiy qarshilik ko'rsatmasligining isboti sifatida talqin qildi va 1964 yil 13 aprelda iste'foga chiqishga majbur qildi.[75] Smit uning o'rnini egallash uchun Vazirlar Mahkamasining nomzodini qabul qildi.[78]

Smit Fild o'rnini egallaydi; Duglas-Xom bilan muzokaralar olib boradi

Yan Smitning portret fotosurati
Yan Smit almashtirildi Uinston Fild 1964 yil aprel oyida Janubiy Rodeziya Bosh vaziri sifatida va Britaniyani mustaqillikka qarshi kurashishga va'da berdi.

Smit, fermer Midlands shaharcha Selukve paytida jiddiy jarohat olgan xizmat qilish inglizlarda Qirollik havo kuchlari Ikkinchi Jahon urushi paytida Janubiy Rodeziyaning birinchi tug'ilgan bosh vaziri.[n 12] Buyuk Britaniyaning siyosiy doiralarida "xom mustamlaka" sifatida qaraldi - u o'z lavozimini egallab olganida, Smitning Buyuk Britaniyadagi shaxsiy tajribasi to'rtta qisqa tashrifni o'z ichiga olgan edi - u mustaqillik muzokaralarida Fildga qaraganda qiyinroq chiziqni va'da qildi.[78] RFning Fild o'rnini egallashi uning rahbari Britaniya Leyboristlar partiyasining tanqidiga sabab bo'ldi Garold Uilson buni "shafqatsiz" deb atagan,[82] Nkomo esa yangi Smit kabinetini "o'z joniga qasd qilish guruhi ... hamma odamlarning farovonligi bilan emas, balki faqat o'z manfaatlari bilan qiziqadi" deb ta'riflagan.[83] Smit Janubiy Rodeziyada hali ham "oq tanli odam uchun joy" qolishi uchun qora Rodeziya hukmronligi va aparteid o'rtasida o'rta yo'lni tutganini aytdi;[84] Bu qora tanlilarga ham foyda keltiradi, deb ta'kidladi u.[85] Uning ta'kidlashicha, hukumat "rang yoki millatchilikka emas, balki xizmatga asoslangan bo'lishi kerak",[85] va "bu erda mening hayotimda afrikalik millatchi hukumat bo'lmaydi" deb turib oldi.[86]

Solsberining "O'zgarishlar shamoli" tarkibiga kirishdan qat'iyan bosh tortishi Janubiy Rodeziya armiyasining an'anaviy ingliz va amerikalik etkazib beruvchilarining norasmiy embargoga yo'l qo'yishiga sabab bo'ldi,[87] Uaytxoll va Vashingtonni bir vaqtning o'zida Janubiy Rodeziyaga moliyaviy yordam yuborishni to'xtatishga undadi.[n 13] 1964 yil iyun oyida Duglas-Xom Smitga 1932 yilga borib kelganiga qaramay, Janubiy Rodeziya Hamdo'stlik Bosh vazirlari konferentsiyasida qatnashmasligini ma'lum qildi.[n 14] faqat to'liq mustaqil davlatlarning vakillarini o'z ichiga olgan siyosat o'zgarganligi sababli. Konferentsiyada Osiyo va qora tanli Afrika rahbarlari bilan ochiq to'qnashuvni oldini olish uchun Buyuk Britaniya tomonidan qabul qilingan ushbu qaror Smitni qattiq haqorat qildi.[90] Lord Malvern Buyuk Britaniyaning Janubiy Rodeziyaning konferentsiya joyini olib tashlashini "bizni Hamdo'stlikdan chiqarib yuborish" bilan tenglashtirdi,[91] Welenskiy esa, "Buyuk Britaniya va Hamdo'stlik yaratilganidan beri har tomonlama qo'llab-quvvatlab kelayotgan mamlakatga nisbatan ushbu otliq muomala" deb ta'riflaganidan dahshatga tushdi.[89]

Ser Alek Duglas-Xomening fotosurati
Buyuk Britaniya Bosh vaziri Ser Alek Duglas-Uy Smit bilan 1964 yil sentyabrda Londonda uchrashdi.

Da Dauning ko'chasi, 10-uy 1964 yil sentyabr oyining boshlarida Duglas-Xom va Smit o'rtasida Janubiy Rodeziyada qora tanli jamoatchilik fikrini o'lchashning eng yaxshi usuli bo'yicha nopoklik yuzaga keldi. Buyuk Britaniyaning Janubiy Rodeziya siyosatining asosiy rejasi shundan iborat ediki, mustaqillik shartlari "umuman mamlakat aholisi uchun ma'qul" bo'lishi kerak edi - bunga rozilik bildirgan Smit oq va shaharlik qora tanli fikrlarni umumiy referendum orqali aniqlash mumkin degan fikrni ilgari surdi. ro'yxatdan o'tgan saylovchilar va qishloqning qora tanli qarashlari milliy fuqarodan olinishi mumkin edi indaba (qabila konferentsiyasi) boshliqlar va sardorlar. Duglas-Xom Smitga ushbu taklif uni shaxsan o'zi qoniqtirsa-da, Hamdo'stlik, Birlashgan Millatlar Tashkiloti yoki Leyboristlar partiyasi ham bunga ishonmaganligi sababli uni qabul qila olmasligini aytdi. Uning ta'kidlashicha, Smit bilan yashashga qaratilgan bunday harakat konservatorlarning kelgusi oydagi Britaniyadagi umumiy saylovlardagi imkoniyatlariga putur etkazishi mumkin va saylovlardan so'ng muzokaralarni davom ettirishni kutish Smitning manfaatlariga javob berishi mumkin. Smit bu dalilni qabul qildi. Duglas-Xom Smitni konservativ hukumat u bilan kelishib, bir yil ichida mustaqillikka ega bo'lishiga ishontirdi.[92]

Rodeziya frontiga qarshi oqilona oppozitsiyani tashkil qilishga urinib, O'FP o'zini Welenskiy atrofida qayta tiriltirib, Rodeziya partiyasi deb nomladi va 1964 yil 1 oktyabrga chaqirilgan Arundel va Avondeylga qo'shimcha saylovlarga kirdi. oppozitsiyaning boshida parlamentda siyosiy og'ir vazndagi Welenskiy bilan yuzma-yuz turib, RF ushbu sobiq O'FPning har ikkala ishonchli o'rindig'ini yutish uchun katta mablag 'sarfladi va maydonga tushdi Klifford Dupont, Smitning o'rinbosari, Arundelda Welenskiga qarshi.[n 15] RF ikkala o'rindiqni ham bemalol qo'lga kiritdi va Rodeziya partiyasi tez orada yo'q bo'lib ketdi. Ushbu muvaffaqiyatdan so'ng, Smit tashkil qildi indaba uchun 22 oktyabr va general chaqirdi mustaqillik referendumi 1964 yil 5-noyabr uchun.[93] Shu bilan birga, Uilson qora tanli Janubiy Rodeziyaliklarga bir qator maktublar yozib, ularni "Mehnat partiyasi Janubiy Rodeziyaga mustaqillik berishga qarshi, agar o'sha mamlakat hukumati oq tanli ozchiliklar nazorati ostida bo'lsa", deb ishontirgan.[96]

Uilsonning Leyboristlar hukumati; Solsberining fikrlar sinovlari

Garold Uilsonning portret fotosurati
Garold Uilson 1964 yil oktyabr oyida Duglas-Xom o'rnini egalladi va Smitning ashaddiy raqibini isbotladi.

Leyboristlar inglizlarda konservatorlarni to'rt o'ringa mag'lub etishdi umumiy saylov 1964 yil 15 oktyabrda va ertasi kuni hukumat tuzdi. Leyboristlar ham, konservatorlar ham Smitga ijobiy natija ekanligini aytishdi indaba Britaniya tomonidan xalq vakili sifatida tan olinmas edi va konservatorlar Solsberining kuzatuvchilarni yuborish taklifidan bosh tortdilar. Smit parlamentga qabila boshliqlari va boshliqlaridan "o'z xalqi bilan an'anaviy tarzda maslahatlashishni" so'rab, so'ngra indaba rejalashtirilganidek.[97] 22 oktyabrda mamlakatning 196 boshliqlari va 426 boshliqlari yig'ilishdi Domboshava, Solsberidan shimoli-sharqda joylashgan va o'zlarining bahslarini boshladilar. Smit bunga qatnashgan Buyuk Britaniya deb umid qildi indabas o'tmishda, so'nggi daqiqada delegatsiyani yuborishi mumkin edi, ammo hech kim kelmadi, bu uning g'azabiga sabab bo'ldi, ayniqsa Britaniya hukumati Hamdo'stlik kotibi Artur Bottomley faqat bo'ylab joylashgan Zambezi yilda Lusaka vaqtida.[98][n 16]

Boshliqlar maslahatlashganda, Shimoliy Rodeziya 1964 yil 24 oktyabrda Malavi kabi davlatchilikka erishgan Nyasalandni taqlid qilib, mustaqil Zambiya bo'ldi. Shimoliy hamkasbi yo'qligida o'zini "janubiy" deb atashning hojati yo'q deb o'ylagan Janubiy Rodeziya o'zini shunchaki Rodeziya deb atay boshladi.[n 17] Xuddi shu kuni Rodeziya armiyasi, General-mayor Jon "Jok" Anderson iste'foga chiqdi va buni UDIga qarshi bo'lganligi sababli qilganini ochiq e'lon qilib, qirolichaga sodiqligi uchun qasamyodi bilan yura olmasligini aytdi. Buni Smit ko'pchilik referendumda qo'llab-quvvatlasa, mustaqillikni e'lon qilishni niyat qilganligi belgisi sifatida talqin qilib, Uilson 25 oktabrda Smitga qattiq xat yozib, UDI oqibatlari to'g'risida ogohlantirdi va "qat'iyan kafolat berishni talab qildi. sizning tarafingizdan bir tomonlama mustaqillik e'lon qilinadi ".[100] Smit buni qo'zg'atish uchun nima qilganiga shubha bildirdi va buni e'tiborsiz qoldirdi.[100]

Qachon indaba 26 oktabrda tugatildi. Boshliqlar va boshliqlar hukumatning 1961 yilgi konstitutsiyaga binoan mustaqillik tarafdori bo'lishini qo'llab-quvvatlash to'g'risida bir ovozdan qabul qilingan qarorni qaytarib berishdi va o'zlarining ma'ruzalarida "uzoq yashaydigan odamlar bizning mamlakatimiz muammolarini tushunmaydilar" deb tasdiqladilar.[100] Ushbu hukm millatchi harakat tomonidan boshliqlar hukumat maoshlarini olganligi sababli rad etilgan; boshliqlar parlament oppozitsiyasidagi qora tanli deputatlar ham bunday maosh olishlariga qarshi bo'lishdi, ammo baribir hukumatga qarshi chiqishdi.[100] RFning harakatlaridan bezovta bo'lgan Malvern, ishdan bo'shatdi indaba boshliqlar endi hech qanday haqiqiy kuchga ega emasligini ta'kidlab, "firibgar" sifatida; inglizlar shunchaki butun mashqni e'tiborsiz qoldirdilar.[101] 27 oktyabrda Uilson Buyuk Britaniyaning UDIga bo'lgan munosabati to'g'risida qat'iy bayonot chiqarib, Smit hukumati UDI bilan ketadigan bo'lsa, sanktsiyalar kampaniyasi paytida Rodeziyaning Angliya, Hamdo'stlik va dunyoning aksariyati bilan iqtisodiy va siyosiy aloqalari darhol uzilishini ogohlantirdi.[100] Bu oq rangdagi rodeziyaliklarni referendumda mustaqillik uchun ovoz berishdan qaytarishga qaratilgan edi,[102] bu uchun RF kampaniyasi shiori "Ha UDI emas, Birlikni anglatadi" edi.[103] Uilyonlar uyida uning etakchi raqibi Duglas-Xaum bu bayonotni "qo'pol, ammo to'g'ri" deb maqtaganidan Uilson mamnun edi.[104] On 5 November 1964, Rhodesia's mostly white electorate voted "yes" to independence under the 1961 constitution by a margin of 89%,[n 18] prompting Smith to declare that the British condition of acceptability to the people as a whole had been met.[106]

Stalemate develops between Smith and Wilson

Smith wrote to Wilson the day after the referendum, asking him to send Bottomley to Salisbury for talks. Wilson replied that Smith should instead come to London.[106] The British and Rhodesians exchanged often confrontational letters for the next few months. Alluding to the British financial aid pledged to Salisbury as part of the Federal dissolution arrangements, Wilson's High Commissioner in Salisbury, J B Johnston, wrote to the Rhodesian Cabinet Secretary Gerald B Clarke on 23 December that "talk of a unilateral declaration of independence is bound to throw a shadow of uncertainty on the future financial relations between the two governments".[107] Smith was furious, seeing this as blackmail, and on 13 January 1965 wrote to Wilson: "I am so incensed at the line of your High Commissioner's letter that I am replying directly to you ... It would appear that any undertakings given by the British government are worthless ... such immoral behaviour on the part of the British government makes it impossible for me to continue negotiations with you with any confidence that our standards of fair play, honesty and decency will prevail."[108]

Dauning-stritning keng zarbasi
Dauning ko'chasi, 10-uy, where Wilson received Smith in January 1965

The two premiers were brought together in person in late January 1965, when Smith travelled to London for Ser Uinston Cherchill dafn marosimi. Following an episode concerning Smith's non-invitation to a luncheon at Bukingem saroyi after the funeral—noticing the Rhodesian's absence, the Queen sent a royal tenglik to Smith's hotel to retrieve him, reportedly causing Wilson much irritation—the two Prime Ministers inconclusively debated at 10 Downing Street. They differed on most matters, but agreed on a visit to Rhodesia the next month by Bottomley and the Lord Chancellor, Lord Gardiner, to gauge public opinion and meet political and commercial figures.[109] Bottomley and Gardiner visited Rhodesia from 22 February to 3 March, collected a wide cross-section of opinions, including some from black Rhodesians, and on returning to Britain reported to the House of Commons that they were "not without hope of finding a way towards a solution that will win the support of all communities and lead to independence and prosperity for all Rhodesians".[110] Bottomley also condemned black-on-black political violence, and dismissed the idea of introducing majority rule through military force.[110]

The RF called a new general election for 1965 yil may and, campaigning on an saylov va'dasi of independence, won all 50 "A"-roll seats (the voters for which were mostly white).[n 19] Josiah Gondo, leader of the United People's Party, became Rhodesia's first black Muxolifat lideri. Opening parliament on 9 June, Gibbs told the Legislative Assembly that the RF's strengthened majority amounted to "a mandate to lead the country to its full independence", and announced that the new government had informed him of its intent to open its own diplomatic mission in Lisbon, separate from the British embassy there. The British and Rhodesians argued about this unilateral act by Salisbury, described by the historian J R T Wood as the "veritable straw in the wind",[87] alongside the independence issue until Portugal accepted the mission in late September, much to Britain's fury and Rhodesia's delight.[112] Hoping to bring Smith to heel by stonewalling him, Wilson's ministers deliberately delayed and frustrated the Rhodesian government in negotiations.[113] Rhodesia was again excluded from the Commonwealth Prime Ministers' Conference in 1965. The UK's refusal of aid, the Lisbon mission, the informal arms embargo and other issues combined with this to cause the Rhodesian government's sense of alienation from Britain and the Commonwealth to deepen.[88] In his memoirs, Smith accused the British of "resorting to politics of convenience and appeasement".[114] Wilson, meanwhile, became exasperated by what he saw as Rhodesian inflexibility, describing the gap between the two governments as "between different worlds and different centuries".[115]

Final steps to UDI

Uilson: "We are not giving up. Too much is at stake ... I know I speak for everyone in these islands, all parties, all our people, when I say to Mr Smith, 'Prime Minister, think again'."
Smit: "After 43 years of proving our case we are told that we cannot be master in our own house. Is it not incredible that the British government has allowed our case to deteriorate into this fantastic position? ... I believe I should say to Mr Wilson: 'Prime Minister, think again!'"

-- Wilson and Smith called on each other through televised statements to "think again" on 13 October 1965[116]

Amid renewed rumours of an impending Rhodesian UDI, Smith travelled to meet Wilson in London at the start of October 1965, telling the press that he intended to resolve the independence issue once and for all.[117] Both the British and the Rhodesians were surprised by the large numbers of Britons who came out to support Smith during his visit.[118] Smith accepted an invitation from the BBC to appear on its Twenty-Four Hours evening news and current affairs programme, but Downing Street blocked this at the last minute.[118] Following largely abortive talks with Wilson, the Rhodesian Prime Minister flew home on 12 October.[119] Desperate to avert UDI, Wilson travelled to Salisbury two weeks later to continue negotiations.[120]

During these discussions, Smith referred to the last resort of a UDI on many occasions,[121] though he said he hoped to find another way out of the quandary. He offered to increase black legislative representation by expanding the electorate along the lines of "one taxpayer, one vote"—which would enfranchise about half a million, but still leave most of the nation voteless—in return for a grant of independence.[120] Wilson said this was insufficient, and countered that future black representation might be better safeguarded by Britain's withdrawal from the colonial government of the power it had held since 1923 to determine the size and makeup of its parliament. The Rhodesians were horrified by this prospect, particularly as Wilson's suggestion of it seemed to them to have removed the failsafe alternative of keeping the joriy vaziyat.[122] Before the British Prime Minister left Rhodesia on 30 October 1965, he proposed a Royal Commission to gauge public opinion in the colony regarding independence under the 1961 constitution, possibly chaired by the Rhodesian Chief Justice Ser Xyu Bidl, which would report its findings to both the British and Rhodesian Cabinets.[123] Wilson confirmed in the House of Commons two days later that he intended to introduce direct British control over the Rhodesian parliamentary structure to ensure that progress was made towards majority rule.[124]

Stalemate drew closer as the Rhodesian Cabinet resolved that since Wilson had ruled out maintenance of the joriy vaziyat, its only remaining options were to trust in the Royal Commission or declare independence.[125] When the terms for the commission's visit were presented to Smith, he found that contrary to what had been discussed during the British Prime Minister's visit, the Royal Commission would operate on the basis that the 1961 constitution was unacceptable to the British government, and that Britain would not commit itself to accepting the final report. Smith said these conditions amounted to a "vote of no confidence in [the commission] before they commenced", and therefore rejected them.[126] "The impression you left with us of a determined effort to resolve our constitutional problem has been utterly dissipated", he wrote to Wilson on 5 November. "It would seem that you have now finally closed the door which you publicly claimed to have opened."[121]

Amid frantic efforts by Beadle and others on both sides to revive the Royal Commission, the Rhodesian government had Gibbs announce a favqulodda holat the same day on the grounds that black Rhodesian insurgents were reportedly entering the country. Smith denied that this foreshadowed a declaration of independence,[127] but the publishing of his letter to Wilson in the press provoked a worldwide storm of speculation that UDI was imminent.[121] Smith wrote again to Wilson on 8 November, asking him to appoint the Royal Commission under the terms they had agreed in Salisbury and to commit the British government to accepting its ruling, but Wilson did not immediately reply.[128] On 9 November, the Rhodesian Cabinet sent a letter to Qirolicha Yelizaveta II, assuring her that Rhodesia would remain loyal to her personally "whatever happens".[129]

Draft, adoption and signing

Amerika Qo'shma Shtatlarining mustaqillik deklaratsiyasi
The Amerika Qo'shma Shtatlarining mustaqillik deklaratsiyasi was used by the Rhodesians as the model for their UDI.

The Rhodesian Minister for Justice and Law and Order, Desmond Lardner-Burke, presented the rest of the Cabinet with a draft for the declaration of independence on 5 November 1965. When Jek Xovman, Minister of Tourism and Information, said that he was also preparing a draft, the Cabinet decided to wait to see his version too. The ministers agreed that if an independence proclamation were issued, they would all sign it.[127] On 9 November, the Cabinet jointly devised an outline for the proclamation document and the accompanying statement to be made by Smith.[129] The final version of the declaration of independence was prepared by a sub-committee of civil servants headed by Gerald Clarke, the Cabinet Secretary,[1] bilan Amerika Qo'shma Shtatlarining mustaqillik deklaratsiyasi of 1776, the only other such proclamation ever issued by British colonials, used as a model.[130] Strongly alluding to Tomas Jefferson 's text throughout, the Rhodesians used one phrase so'zma-so'z —"a respect for the opinions of mankind"[131]—but no reference was made to the assertion that "hamma erkaklar teng yaratilgan ", nor to the "boshqariladiganlarning roziligi ", two omissions later stressed by a number of commentators.[132]

Attached to the declaration of independence was a copy of the 1961 constitution amended for the circumstances, which became the 1965[133] konstitutsiya. In the eyes of the Smith administration, this document removed Whitehall's remaining authority over Rhodesia and made Rhodesia a de-yure mustaqil davlat. However, the Smith government still professed loyalty to Elizabeth II, and accordingly the document reconstituted Rhodesia as a Hamdo'stlik sohasi with Elizabeth as "Queen of Rhodesia". The new constitution created the concept of allegiance to the "Constitution of Rhodesia," and introduced the post of Officer Administering the Government, a viceregal figure empowered to sign passed legislation into law on behalf of the monarch if she did not appoint a General-gubernator.[130]

The Rhodesian Cabinet waited in vain for Wilson's reply for the rest of 9 November and the next day. After briefly meeting Smith late on 10 November,[134] Johnston warned Wilson that evening that the Rhodesians seemed poised to declare independence in the morning. The British Prime Minister tried repeatedly to call Smith, but did not get through until Smith was already chairing a Cabinet meeting on the independence issue around 08:00 Markaziy Afrika vaqti (06:00 in London) on 11 November. Wilson attempted to talk Smith out of unilateral action by telling him the joriy vaziyat could continue, and the two argued inconclusively about the proposed Royal Commission. Returning to his Cabinet meeting, Smith reported the conversation to his ministers, and, after debating for a while, the Cabinet came to the conclusion that Wilson was simply attempting to buy more time and that there was no sign of actual progress. Smith asked if Rhodesia should declare its independence, and had each Cabinet minister answer in turn. According to Smith's account, "each one, quietly but firmly, without hesitation, said: 'Yes'."[135]

At 11:00 local time on 11 November 1965, Sulh kuni, during the traditional two minutes' silence to remember the fallen of the two World Wars, Smith declared Rhodesia independent and signed the proclamation document, with Dupont and the other 10 vazirlar of the Cabinet following. The timing was intended to emphasise the sacrifices Rhodesia had made for Britain in wartime.[136] Sifatida Ken gul later said, "the rebellion was made to appear as though it was not a rebellion".[130] Smith and his ministers still pledged allegiance to Queen Elizabeth II, whose official portrait hung prominently behind them as they signed; the declaration even ended "God Save The Queen".[130] Four junior members of the Cabinet—Lance Smith, Ian Dillon, Andrew Dunlop and P K van der Byl —did not sign, but were included in the official photograph.[137]

Deklaratsiya matni

Bayonot

Whereas in the course of human affairs history has shown that it may become necessary for a people to resolve the political affiliations which have connected them with another people and to assume amongst other nations the separate and equal status to which they are entitled:

And Whereas in such event a respect for the opinions of mankind requires them to declare to other nations the causes which impel them to assume full responsibility for their own affairs:

Now Therefore, We, The Government of Rhodesia, Do Hereby Declare:

That it is an indisputable and accepted historic fact that since 1923 the Government of Rhodesia have exercised the powers of self-government and have been responsible for the progress, development and welfare of their people;

That the people of Rhodesia having demonstrated their loyalty to the Crown and to their kith and kin in the United Kingdom and elsewhere through two world wars, and having been prepared to shed their blood and give of their substance in what they believed to be the mutual interests of freedom-loving people, now see all that they have cherished about to be shattered on the rocks of expediency;

That the people of Rhodesia have witnessed a process which is destructive of those very precepts upon which civilization in a primitive country has been built, they have seen the principles of Western democracy, responsible government and moral standards crumble elsewhere, nevertheless they have remained steadfast;

That the people of Rhodesia fully support the requests of their government for sovereign independence but have witnessed the consistent refusal of the Government of the United Kingdom to accede to their entreaties;

That the Government of the United Kingdom have thus demonstrated that they are not prepared to grant sovereign independence to Rhodesia on terms acceptable to the people of Rhodesia, thereby persisting in maintaining an unwarrantable jurisdiction over Rhodesia, obstructing laws and treaties with other states and the conduct of affairs with other nations and refusing assent to laws necessary for the public good, all this to the detriment of the future peace, prosperity and good government of Rhodesia;

That the Government of Rhodesia have for a long period patiently and in good faith negotiated with the Government of the United Kingdom for the removal of the remaining limitations placed upon them and for the grant of sovereign independence;

That in the belief that procrastination and delay strike at and injure the very life of the nation, the Government of Rhodesia consider it essential that Rhodesia should attain, without delay, sovereign independence, the justice of which is beyond question;

Now Therefore, We The Government of Rhodesia, in humble submission to Almighty God who controls the destinies of nations, conscious that the people of Rhodesia have always shown unswerving loyalty and devotion to Her Majesty the Queen and earnestly praying that we and the people of Rhodesia will not be hindered in our determination to continue exercising our undoubted right to demonstrate the same loyalty and devotion, and seeking to promote the common good so that the dignity and freedom of all men may be assured, Do, By This Proclamation, adopt, enact and give to the people of Rhodesia the Constitution annexed hereto;

God Save The Queen

Given under Our Hand at Salisbury, this eleventh day of November in the Year of Our Lord one thousand nine hundred and sixty-five.

Announcement and reactions

E'lon

Prompted by the government, the Rodeziya radioeshittirish korporatsiyasi told the public to stand by for an important announcement from the Prime Minister at 13:15 local time. Smith went first to Government House to inform Gibbs that his Cabinet had declared independence,[130] then to Pockets Hill Studios in east Salisbury to announce UDI to the nation. He read the proclamation aloud, then stated that independence had been declared because it had become "abundantly clear that it is the policy of the British government to play us along with no real intention of arriving at a solution which we could possibly accept ... I promised the people of this country that I would continue to negotiate to the bitter end and that I would leave no stone unturned in my endeavours to secure an honourable and mutually accepted settlement; it now falls to me to tell you that negotiations have come to an end".[138]

Smith said that he believed that he would be remiss in his duty if he allowed Rhodesia to continue to "drift in its present paralysing state of uncertainty", and that following Britain's abandonment of the Federation his government was determined that "the same will never be allowed to happen here". He claimed that UDI did not mark "a diminution in the opportunities which our African people have to advance and prosper in Rhodesia", described "racial harmony in Africa" as part of his agenda and condemned black Rhodesian activities as attempts to "blackmail the British government into ... handing the country over to irresponsible rule". He then attempted to assuage fears that economic sanctions might destroy the economy, and asked Rhodesians to stand firm: "The mantle of the pioneers has fallen on our shoulders ... In the lives of most nations there comes a moment when a stand has to be made for principles, whatever the consequences. This moment has come to Rhodesia ... the first Western nation in the last two decades to say 'so far and no further'." He concluded with an assertion that the declaration of independence was "a blow for the preservation of justice, civilisation and Christianity".[139]

By the time Smith and Dupont arrived at Government House to see Gibbs, Whitehall had instructed the Governor to formally dismiss Smith and his ministers for treason. Gibbs complied without hesitation. Smith and his ministers ignored this, holding that under the new 1965 constitution Gibbs "no longer ha[d] any executive powers in Rhodesia", and his zaxira quvvat to sack them no longer existed.[140] The Rhodesian government hoped that Gibbs might obligingly resign in light of his impotent situation, but he did not; following orders from London, he remained at his post at Government House. Gibbs told the Rhodesian military's senior officers, some of whom were troubled by the perceived choice between Queen and country, to remain at their posts to maintain law and order.[141] Wilson briefly flirted with the idea of sending Lord Mountbatten to Rhodesia to support Gibbs as a direct representative of the Queen, but this was dropped after Gibbs asked for somebody "higher up" in the royal family instead.[142] "Not likely", Wilson retorted.[142]

The Rhodesian government accompanied UDI with emergency measures that it said were intended to prevent alarm, unrest and the flight of people and capital. Press censorship and petrol rationing were imposed, import licences were cancelled and emigration allowances were cut to £100. News of UDI was generally received calmly by the local citizenry, apart from some isolated incidents of passing cars being stoned in the black townships outside Bulawayo. A few expected dissenters were arrested, most prominently Leo Baron, Nkomo's lawyer, whose links with black Rhodesians and communists were seen by authorities as "subversive".[141] Baron, the younger brother of the scientist Jeykob Bronovski, was arrested nine minutes after UDI was made.[141]

What was it that could make a country twice the size of Britain with half the population of London pit itself against the massive weight of world opinion? Rights or wrongs aside, there was something splendid about the gesture.

-- Rhodesian journalist Phillippa Berlyn on UDI[143]

Welensky, who had opposed UDI, stated that he felt it was nevertheless "the duty of every responsible Rhodesian to support the revolutionary government" as he believed the only alternative was a descent into anarchy.[141] João de Freitas Cruz, the Portuguese consul-general in Salisbury, reacted to the news with wild excitement; visiting the Smith residence later in the day, he declared "Only Rhodesians could do this!"[144] A statement from ZAPU's Jeyson Moyo, who was in London at the time, denounced UDI as an act of "treason and rebellion" and asserted that "the lives particularly of four million unarmed Africans are in jeopardy".[145] Davis M'Gabe of the Zimbabve Afrika milliy ittifoqi (ZANU) said that "For all those who cherish freedom and a meaningful life, UDI has set a collision course which cannot be altered. [It has] marked the turning point of the struggle for freedom ... from a constitutional and political one to primarily a military struggle."[146] Most major Christian denominational leaders in the country publicly rejected UDI and the assertion that it defended Christianity, with the exception of the local Gollandiyalik islohot cherkovi, which stated that it was apolitical and thereafter refrained from comment.[147]

A week after UDI, Smith's government announced that Dupont, the Deputy Prime Minister, had resigned from the Cabinet to accept the post of Officer Administering the Government created by the 1965 constitution.[142] Attempting to assert his claimed prerogatives as Her Majesty's Rhodesian Prime Minister, Smith advised the Queen by letter to appoint Dupont as Governor-General to supersede Gibbs. The letter was ignored, with Bukingem saroyi characterising Smith's request as "purported advice".[148] Whitehall maintained that Gibbs was the Queen's only legitimate representative in what it still reckoned as the colony of Southern Rhodesia–and hence, the only lawful authority in the area.[149] Dupont nevertheless effectively replaced the Governor. The Smith administration assigned him the Governor's official residence at Government House, but no attempt was made to forcibly remove Gibbs and his entourage; the post-UDI government stated that the Officer Administering the Government would live at Governor's Lodge instead "until Government House, at present temporarily occupied by Sir Humphrey Gibbs in a private capacity, becomes available".[142]

The Spiker of the Rhodesian parliament, A R W Stumbles, reconvened the Legislative Assembly on 25 November, resolving that if he did not there would be chaos. He feared that Gibbs might dramatically walk into the chamber in an attempt to stop the proceedings, but Gibbs did no such thing. The parliamentary opposition opened the meeting by asking whether the assembly was legal.[150] Ahrn Palley, the lone white opposition MP, announced that as he saw it, "certain Honourable Members in collusion have torn up the constitution under which this House meets. The proceedings have no legal validity whatsoever".[151] Stumbles overruled this objection and two more interruptions from Palley, and suggested that any members with reservations might leave.[150] Palley continued his loud protests until he was forcibly ejected by the Sergeant-at-Arms, shouting "This is an illegal assembly! God save the Queen!"[151] Gondo and eight other opposition MPs followed Palley out;[150] all ten of them rejoined the Legislative Assembly in February 1966.[n 20]

Gibbs received threatening letters from the Rhodesian public, and on 26 November 1965 Smith's government cut off the telephones at Government House, and removed the ceremonial guard, the official cars "and even the typewriters", Wood records.[142] Gibbs nevertheless refused to step down or to leave Government House, issuing a statement that he would remain there "as the lawful Governor of Rhodesia until such time as constitutional government is restored, which I hope will be soon."[142] He stayed at his post, ignored by the post-UDI government, until the declaration of a republic in 1970.[142]

British and international responses; sanktsiyalar

Wilson was astonished by Smith's actions, and found the timing of the declaration to coincide with the Armistice Day silence deeply insulting.[116] Describing Salisbury as "hell-bent on illegal self-destroying",[115] the British Prime Minister, supported in the Commons by the Liberals and most Conservatives, called on Rhodesians to ignore the post-UDI government.[115] Within hours of UDI, the UN General Assembly passed a condemnatory resolution, by 107-to-two—South Africa and Portugal voted against, and France abstained—decrying Rhodesia's actions and calling on Britain to end "the rebellion by the unlawful authorities in Salisbury".[153] The BMT Xavfsizlik Kengashi the next day adopted Resolution 216, which denounced the declaration of independence as illegal and racist, and called on all states to refuse recognition and assistance to the Rhodesian government. Security Council Resolution 217, following on 20 November, condemned UDI as an illegitimate "usurpation of power by a racist settler minority", and called on nations neither to recognise what it deemed "this illegal authority" nor to entertain diplomatic or economic relations with it. Both of these measures were adopted by ten votes to none with France abstaining.[154]

Rhodesian nationalists and their overseas supporters, prominently the OAU, clamoured for Britain to remove Smith's government by force.[155] The UN Committee on Independence also strongly advised military intervention.[156] The British government dismissed this option because of various logistical issues, the risk of provoking a Rhodesian attack on Zambia and the psychological problems that were likely to accompany any confrontation between British and Rhodesian troops in what Smith said would be a "fratricidal war".[157] Buyuk Britaniya tashqi ishlar vaziri Maykl Styuart stated that the United Kingdom thought that Rhodesian forces were well-equipped, well-trained and highly motivated and that an invasion would lead to "a medium sized war of uncertain duration".[158] Wilson instead resolved to end the Rhodesian rebellion through economic sanctions; these principally comprised the expulsion of Rhodesia from the Sterling maydoni, a ban on the import of Rhodesian sugar, tobacco, chrome and other goods and an oil boycott of Rhodesia. When the Rhodesians continued to receive oil, Wilson attempted to directly cut off their main supply lines, namely the Portuguese Mozambican ports at Beyra va Lourenço Markes, by posting a Qirollik floti squadron to the Mozambik kanali in March 1966. This blockade, the Beira Patrol, was endorsed the following month by UN Security Council Resolution 221.[159] The United Nations proceeded to institute the first mandatory trade sanctions in its history with Security Council Resolutions 232 (December 1966) and 253 (April 1968), which required member states to cease all trade and economic links with Rhodesia.[160]

Wilson predicted in January 1966 that the various boycotts would force Smith to give in "within a matter of weeks rather than months", but the British and UN sanctions had little effect on Rhodesia, largely because South Africa and Portugal went on trading with the breakaway colony, providing it with oil and other commodities.[161][162] Clandestine "sanction-busting" trade with other nations also continued, initially at a reduced level and the diminished presence of foreign competitors helped domestic industries to slowly mature and expand. Rhodesia thus avoided the economic collapse predicted by Wilson and gradually became more self-sufficient.[163] The Rhodesian government set up a string of front holding companies in Switzerland, Luxembourg and Liechtenstein to help keep trade open with some success; goods that had been imported from Britain were replaced by Japanese, French and West German equivalents. Even many OAU states, while bombarding Rhodesia with vitriol, continued importing Rhodesian food and other products.[164] The United States created a formal exception in its embargo with the Byrd Amendment of 1971, under which the US replaced its import of chrome from the Soviet Union with Rhodesian chrome ore. This breach of the UN sanctions, passed by the AQSh Kongressi on the back of anti-communist Cold War considerations, was warmly welcomed by several white Janubliklar Kongressda; it aided the Rhodesian economy until 1977, when the new President, Jimmi Karter, successfully pushed Congress to repeal it.[165]

Rodeziya uyi, the Rhodesian Oliy komissiya in London, represented Smith's government in the UK until 1969, and became a regular target for political activists.

Official diplomatic recognition by other countries was key for Rhodesia as it was the only way it could regain the international legitimacy it had lost through UDI.[63] Recognition by the UK itself through a bilateral settlement would be the "first prize", in Smith's words, as it would end sanctions and constitutional ambiguity and make foreign acceptance, at least in the West, far more likely.[166] Considering their country a potentially important player in the Cold War as a "bastion against communism" in southern Africa,[167] the RF posited that some Western countries might recognise UDI even without a prior Anglo-Rhodesian rapprochement. Specifically, it expected diplomatic recognition from South Africa and Portugal, and thought that France might recognise Rhodesia to annoy Britain and create a precedent for an independent Quebec.[63] But although South Africa and Portugal gave economic, military and limited political support to the post-UDI government (as did France and other nations, to a lesser extent), neither they nor any other country ever recognised Rhodesia as a de-yure mustaqil davlat.[168] Rhodesia's unsuccessful attempts to win Western support and recognition included offers to the US government in 1966 and 1967, ignored by Lyndon B Jonson 's administration, to provide Rhodesian troops to fight alongside the Americans and other anti-communist forces Vetnamda.[169]

Britain withdrew most of its Oliy komissiya staff from Salisbury in the days following UDI, leaving a small skeleton staff to man a "residual mission" intended to help Gibbs keep the British government informed of local happenings.[144] Several countries followed Britain's lead and closed their konsulliklar in Salisbury, with one prominent exception to this being the United States, which retained its consulate-general in post-UDI Rhodesia, relabelling it a "US Contacts Office" to circumvent the problem of diplomatic recognition.[n 21] South Africa and Portugal maintained "Accredited Diplomatic Representative" offices in Salisbury, which were embassies in all but name, while Rhodesia kept its pre-UDI overseas missions in Pretoria, Lisbon and Lourenço Marques. Unofficial representative offices of the Rhodesian government also existed in the US, Japan and West Germany, while a citizen of Belgium was employed to represent Rhodesian interests there. The Rhodesian High Commission in London, located at Rodeziya uyi ustida Strand, remained under the control of the post-UDI government and effectively became its representative office in the UK.[170] Kabi South African Embassy kuni Trafalgar maydoni, Rhodesia House became a regular target for political demonstrations. These continued even after Britain forced the office to close in 1969.[171]

Because UDI claimed to make Rhodesia independent under the Queen as an effective dominion, many countries justified their retention of missions in Rhodesia concurrently with their non-recognition of the state by pointing out that the envoys' accreditation was to the Queen and not to Smith's government o'z-o'zidan. But Rhodesia moved away from its original line of independence as a konstitutsiyaviy monarxiya and towards republicanism during the late 1960s, hoping to end ambiguity regarding its claimed constitutional status and elicit official foreign recognition. In March 1970, after the electorate had voted "yes" in a referendum the previous year both to a new constitution and to the abandoning of symbolic ties to the Queen, Smith's government declared Rhodesia a republic. Far from prompting recognition, this led all countries apart from Portugal and South Africa to withdraw their consulates and missions, as the justification of royal accreditation could no longer be used.[170] After Portugal's Chinnigullar inqilobi in 1974, the Rhodesian mission in Lisbon was closed in May 1975, with its counterpart in Lourenço Marques following a month later on Mozambican independence. Portugal also withdrew its own remaining officials from Rhodesia, leaving South Africa as the only country with links to Salisbury. Rhodesia's diplomatic activities were thereafter greatly diminished.[172]

Sud

The Rhodesian High Court's nine Appellate and General Division judges initially neither rejected UDI nor openly supported it. The Chief Justice Sir Hugh Beadle, of the Appellate Division, announced simply that the judges would go on carrying out their duties "according to the law".[142] This originally noncommittal stance evolved over time, largely pivoting around legal cases argued at the High Court in Salisbury between 1966 and 1968. The first of these, Madzimbamuto v. Lardner-Burke N. O. and Others, concerned Daniel Madzimbamuto, a black Rhodesian who was detained without trial by the Rhodesian government on 6 November 1965, the day after the declaration of a state of emergency and five days before UDI, on the grounds that he might pose a danger to the public. Desmond Lardner-Burke, the Rhodesian Minister of Justice and Law and Order, prolonged the state of emergency in February 1966, prompting Madzimbamuto's wife to appeal for his release, arguing that since the United Kingdom had declared UDI illegal and outlawed the Rhodesian government with the Southern Rhodesia Act 1965, the state of emergency (and, by extension, Madzimbamuto's imprisonment) had no legal basis.[173]

The General Division of the Rhodesian High Court ruled on 9 September 1966 that legal sovereignty lay with the British government, but that to "avoid chaos and a vacuum in the law" the Rhodesian government should be considered to be in control of law and order to the same extent as before UDI. In February 1968, ruling on Madzimbamuto's appeal, Beadle concluded that the Smith administration would be recognised by the local judiciary as the amalda government by virtue of its "effective control over the state's territory", but that de-yure recognition would be withheld as this was not "firmly established".[173] Madzimbamuto applied for the right to appeal to the British Maxfiy kengash; the Rhodesian Appellate Division promptly ruled that he had no right to do so,[174] but the Privy Council considered his case anyway.[175]

In late February 1968, considering the fate of James Dhlamini, Victor Mlambo and Duly Shadreck, three black Rhodesians convicted of murder and terrorist offences before UDI, Beadle ruled that Salisbury retained its pre-UDI powers regarding executions and could carry out death sentences. Whitehall announced on 1 March that at the request of the UK government, the Queen had exercised the rahm-shafqatning qirollik huquqi and commuted the three death sentences to life imprisonment. Dhlamini and the others applied for a permanent ijro etilish muddati shu asosda. At the hearing for Dhlamini and Mlambo on 4 March 1968, Beadle argued that he saw the statement from London as a decision by the UK government and not the Queen herself, and that in any case the 1961 constitution had transferred the prerogative of mercy from Britain to the Rhodesian Executive Council. "The present government is the fully amalda government and as such is the only power that can exercise the prerogative", he concluded. "It would be strange indeed if the United Kingdom government, exercising no internal power in Rhodesia, were given the right to exercise the prerogative of clemency."[176] The Judge President Sir Vincent Quenet va adolat Ektor Makdonald agreed, and the application was dismissed. adolat John Fieldsend of the High Court's General Division resigned in protest, writing to Gibbs that he no longer believed the High Court to be defending the rights of Rhodesian citizens. Dhlamini, Mlambo and Shadreck were hanged on 6 March.[176]

On 23 July 1968, the Privy Council in London ruled in Madzimbamuto's favour, deciding that orders for detention made by the Rhodesian government were invalid regardless of whether the 1961 or 1965 constitution was considered effective. It declared the latter, "revolutionary" constitution illegal, and ruled that the former was overridden by the Janubiy Rodeziya to'g'risidagi qonun 1965 yil, which had effectively outlawed the Rhodesian legislative, administrative and legal authorities in British law. Lord Reid, delivering the majority opinion (Lord Pirs dissented), argued that the "usurper" government, though the effective master of Rhodesia, could not be considered lawful as the UK government was still attempting to regain control and it was impossible to say whether or not it would succeed. He ruled that only Whitehall could determine what constituted the maintenance of "law and order" in Rhodesia, and that the Rhodesian emergency measures were unlawful as they had been formalised by the Officer Administering the Government, a post-UDI figure who was, in British eyes, unconstitutional. Reid concluded that Madzimbamuto was illegally detained.[175] Harry Davies, one of the Rhodesian judges, announced on 8 August that the Rhodesian courts would not consider this ruling binding as they no longer accepted the Privy Council as part of the Rhodesian judicial hierarchy. Justice J R Dendy Young resigned in protest at Davies' ruling on 12 August and four days later was sworn in as Chief Justice of Botswana.[177]

The Rhodesian High Court granted full de-yure recognition to the post-UDI government on 13 September 1968, while rejecting the appeals of 32 black Rhodesians who had been a month earlier convicted of terrorist offences and sentenced to death. Beadle, Rodeziya sud tizimi Maxfiy Kengashning qarorlarini "iloji boricha" hurmat qilishi kerak, deb hisoblagan bo'lsa-da, 23 iyuldagi qaror Rodeziya sudyalarining 1961 yilgi konstitutsiyaga muvofiq davom etishini qonuniy ravishda imkonsiz qildi. Uning ta'kidlashicha, shuning uchun sud 1965 yilgi konstitutsiya bilan huquqiy vakuum o'rtasida tanlov o'tkazdi, ikkinchisini u ma'qullay olmasligini his qildi.[178] Maxfiy Kengashning Buyuk Britaniya UDIdan keyingi hukumatni olib tashlashi mumkinligi haqidagi qaroriga ishora qilib, "bugungi kunda mavjud bo'lgan faktlar bo'yicha, sudning yagona bashorat qilishicha, hozirgi hukumatni ag'darishda muvaffaqiyat qozona olmaydi. .. va buni amalga oshirishda boshqa omillar yo'q ".[173]

Makdonald, Bidlning boshqaruv kengashi a'zosi, UDI dan beri Buyuk Britaniya hukumati Rodeziya bilan bog'liq konstitutsiyaga zid va noqonuniy xatti-harakatlarni Birlashgan Millatlar Tashkilotini qonuniy ravishda ichki muammo sifatida qaralishi kerak bo'lgan narsaga jalb qilganligi va bir vaqtning o'zida sodiqlik huquqidan voz kechganligini ta'kidladi. Rodeziya xalqi mamlakatga qarshi iqtisodiy urush olib borish va boshqa xalqlarni ham shunga undash orqali. Ushbu dalilni qo'llab-quvvatlash uchun Makdonald 17-asr Gollandiyalik huquqshunosning da'vosiga murojaat qildi Ugo Grotius "boshqaruv maqsadi va yo'q qilish maqsadi birgalikda yashay olmaydi".[179] Angliya Rodeziyaga qarshi iqtisodiy urush holatida bo'lganligi sababli, sud xulosa qildi, uni bir vaqtning o'zida uni boshqarish deb hisoblash mumkin emas.[179] Keyinchalik UDI, 1965 yilgi konstitutsiya va hukumat ko'rib chiqildi de-yure Rodeziya huquqiy tizimi tomonidan.[173]

Britaniya Hamdo'stlik kotibi, Jorj Tomson, zudlik bilan Rodeziya sudyalarini "erning asosiy qonunlarini" buzganlikda aybladi,[178] Gibbs Gubernator lavozimi 1961 yil Konstitutsiyasiga binoan mavjud bo'lganligi va Maxfiy Kengashga murojaat qilishga ruxsat berganligi sababli, u faqat Rodeziya sudining qarorini rad etishi mumkinligini e'lon qildi.[178] Rodeziyalik hakamlar qat'i nazar davom etishdi. UDIdan keyingi tartibni ularning tan olishlari 1970 yilda qabul qilingan 1969 yilgi respublika konstitutsiyasida amalga oshirildi.[173]

1966 yil yanvar oyida Uilson Britaniya jamoatlar palatasiga UDIdan keyingi Rodeziya "noqonuniy rejimi" bilan mustaqillik to'g'risidagi da'vosidan voz kechmaguncha, u bilan hech qanday muloqotga kirishmasligini aytdi.[192] ammo 1966 yil o'rtalariga kelib Angliya va Rodeziya davlat xizmatchilari London va Solsberida "muzokaralar to'g'risida muzokaralar" o'tkazdilar.[193] O'sha yilning noyabr oyiga qadar Uilson Smit bilan shaxsan muzokara o'tkazishga rozi bo'ldi.[194] Ikki Bosh vazir kemada yashashga muvaffaq bo'lmadi HMS Yo'lbars 1966 yil dekabrda va HMS Qo'rqmas 1968 yil oktyabrda. Konservatorlar Britaniyada hokimiyat tepasiga qaytgandan keyin 1970 yilda, 1971 yil noyabr oyida Rodeziya hukumati va Duglas-Xom boshchiligidagi ingliz jamoasi o'rtasida vaqtinchalik kelishuvga erishildi (u kim edi Tashqi ishlar vaziri Bosh vazir davrida Edvard Xit ) va 1972 yil boshida Lord Pirs boshchiligidagi Qirollik komissiyasi takliflarning ko'pchilik fikriga qanchalik mos kelishini tekshirish uchun Rodeziyaga yo'l oldi. Keng qamrovli maslahatlashuvdan so'ng komissiya, oq tanlilar, rangli ranglar va osiyoliklar taqdim etilgan shartlarni asosan qo'llab-quvvatladilar, aksariyat qora tanlilar ularni rad etishdi. Shuning uchun kelishuv Britaniya hukumati tomonidan bekor qilindi.[195]

The Rodeziya Bush urushi, partizan mojarosi Rodeziya xavfsizlik kuchlari qarshi Zimbabve Afrika milliy ozodlik armiyasi (ZANLA) va Zimbabve Xalq inqilobiy armiyasi (ZIPRA), ZANU va ZAPUning tegishli qurolli qanotlari, 1972 yilning dekabrida, ZANLA paytida jiddiy boshlandi. Altenaga hujum qildi shimoliy-sharqiy Rodeziya va Whistlefield fermer xo'jaliklari.[196] 1974 yilda Portugaliyadagi chinnigullar inqilobi, kelgusi yil Portugaliyaning Smitni qo'llab-quvvatlashini mustaqil ravishda almashtirdi, Marksist-leninchi Rozesiyaning sharqiy chegarasida joylashgan Mozambik urush sur'atini millatchilar (xususan, Mozambik boshqaruvi bilan ittifoqdosh bo'lgan ZANU) foydasiga o'zgartirdi. FRELIMO partiyasi) va Rodeziyaga qarshi sanktsiyalar nihoyat sezilarli ta'sir ko'rsatishni boshlagan.[197] Diplomatik izolyatsiya, sanktsiyalar, partizanlik faoliyati va Janubiy Afrikadan kelishuvni topish uchun bosim Rodeziya hukumatini turli qora Rodeziya fraktsiyalari bilan muzokaralar olib borishiga olib keldi. Abort konferentsiyalari bo'lib o'tdi Viktoriya sharsharasi (1975 yilda) va Jeneva (1976).[198] Mafkuraviy va qabilaviy kelishmovchiliklarga qaramay, ZANU va ZAPU nomli ravishda 1976 yil oxirida "Vatanparvarlik fronti" (PF) sifatida birlashib, qora Rodeziya ishini chet elda qo'llab-quvvatlashga muvaffaq bo'lishdi.[199]

1970-yillarning o'rtalariga kelib, ozchilik oq tanlilar hukmronligi abadiy davom eta olmasligi aniq edi. Hatto Vorster ham qora tanlilar soni 22: 1 dan ustun bo'lgan mamlakatda oq qoida haqiqiy variant emasligini tushundi.[200] 1970-yillar davomida uch marta qat'iyat bilan qayta saylangan Smit, oxir-oqibat ham shunday xulosaga keldi. U printsipial ravishda qabul qilganligini e'lon qildi bitta odam, bitta ovoz davomida Genri Kissincer 1976 yil sentyabr oyida Angliya-Amerika tashabbusi bilan va 1978 yil mart oyida Ichki aholi punkti Bishop boshchiligidagi jangari bo'lmagan millatchi guruhlar bilan Abel Muzoreva, Muhtaram Ndabaningi qudug'i va bosh Eremiyo Chirau. PF tomonidan boykot qilingan va xalqaro miqyosda rad etilgan ushbu kelishuv,[201] ga boshla ko'p millatli saylovlar va ko'pchilik hukmronligi ostida Rodeziyaning qayta tiklanishi Zimbabve Rodeziya 1979 yil iyun oyida. Saylovda g'olib chiqqan Muzoreva 12 qora va besh oq tanli koalitsiya kabinetining boshida mamlakatning birinchi qora tanli Bosh vaziri sifatida ish boshladi.[202] shu jumladan Smit portfelsiz vazir.[203] Muzorevani "neokolonial qo'g'irchoq" sifatida bekor qilish,[204] ZANLA va ZIPRA o'z qurolli kurashini 1979 yil dekabrgacha, Uaytxoll, Solsberi va Vatanparvarlik fronti davom etguncha davom ettirdilar Lancaster uyiga joylashdi. Muzoreva hukumati UDIni bekor qildi va shu bilan mamlakatning 14 yildan so'ng mustaqil bo'lish haqidagi da'vosiga chek qo'ydi va o'zini tarqatib yubordi. Buyuk Britaniya konstitutsiyani to'xtatib, yangi gubernatorga to'liq ijroiya va qonunchilik vakolatlarini berdi, Lord Soames, kim sulh bitimini nazorat qilgan va yangi saylovlar 1980 yil fevral va mart oylarida. Ularni etakchisi ZANU yutdi Robert Mugabe 1980 yil aprel oyida Buyuk Britaniya Hamdo'stlik tarkibidagi respublika sifatida Zimbabvega mustaqillik berganida bosh vazir bo'ldi.[205] Afrikalik millatchi siyosatchilar UDIga qarshi chiqishlarini 21-asrda Zimbabve ustidan hukmronligini qonuniylashtirish vositasi sifatida keltirishda davom etishdi.[206] Nashr qilinganidan beri UDI ilmiy adabiyotlarda, uni yaratishda ishtirok etganlarning avtobiografiyalarida va badiiy asarlarda qayta bayon etilgan.[207]

  4. ^ Keyinchalik turli partiyalardan bo'lgan Janubiy Rodeziya siyosatchilari, agar Federatsiya sodir bo'lmaganida, Janubiy Rodeziya 1955 yilga qadar hukmronlik qilgan bo'lar edi.[22]
  5. ^ Shimoliy Rodeziya va Nyasaland Buyuk Britaniyaning bevosita nazorati ostida bo'lganida, Federal UDI faqat Janubiy Rodeziya tomonidan amalga oshirilgandan ko'ra ancha murakkab va qiyinroq bo'lar edi. Darhaqiqat, qisman shu sababli Welenskiy buni imkonsiz deb topdi.[27]

  7. ^ Welenskiy Sandisning gaplaridan shunchalik larzaga kelganki, u migren bilan og'rigan. Lord Alport Xabar qilinishicha, Buyuk Britaniyaning Federatsiyadagi Oliy Komissari yig'ilishni tark etgan va qayt qilgan.[47]

Sizning mamlakatingiz mas'uliyatli hukumat haqidagi ajoyib rekordini hisobga olgan holda. o'tgan qirq yil ... va avvalo siz urush paytida Britaniyaga doimo bergan buyuk sadoqatingiz ".[50]

  11. ^ Lardner-Burk qonun loyihasida Qonunchilik Assambleyasining uchdan ikki qismining ko'pligi Gubernator tomonidan kiritilgan o'zgartirishlar uchun avtomatik ravishda rozilik berilishini va keyinchalik qirolicha nomidan ularni imzolashini taklif qildi.[74] Uilyam Xarper, Suvni rivojlantirish va yo'llar vaziri, agar bu qabul qilinadigan bo'lsa, Solsberi Hamdo'stlikdan tashqarida parlamentda uchdan ikki qism ko'pchilik ovozi bilan mustaqil respublika e'lon qilishi mumkin deb ta'kidladi.[75]

Solsberi Buyuk Britaniya hali ham boshqa mamlakatlarga yordam berayotganini ta'kidlaganida, Uaytxoll Buyuk Britaniya uchun maqbul bo'lgan mustaqillikni qaror toptirish yo'lida ilgarilagan taqdirda moliyaviy yordam qayta tiklanishi mumkinligini ta'kidladi.[88]

Solsberi qisqartirilgan ismni baribir rasmiy tarzda ishlatishda davom etdi,[3] Britaniya hukumati, Birlashgan Millatlar Tashkiloti va boshqa xorijdagi idoralar mamlakatni Janubiy Rodeziya deb atashda davom etishdi. Bu holat UDI davrida ham davom etdi.[99]
