Church Leaders Applaud U.S. Recognition of Angola Leaders of Protestant mission . boards with long ties to Angola thanked the U.S. government today for announcing this week that it will recognize the Angolan government ? an action the church boards have urged since March. The Rev. Scott S. Libbey, exec utive vice president of the Cleve land-based United Church Board for World Ministries of the United Church of Christ, and the Rev. William Nottingham, president of the Indianapolis-based Division of Overseas Ministries of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), issued this statement: "We strongly affirm the announced intentions of the United States Administration to officially 'recognize President Eduardo Jose dos Santos of Angola and his gov ernment as the established and legit imate authorized government in Angola. This government was fairly elected in the fall of 1992 in a Unit ed Nations certified election. They have also accepted a 37-point peace plan negotiated with the United Nat!bns, the United States, Russia and Portugal. The dos Santos gov emment in Angola clearly should be recognized by the world community as the official government for the peoples of Angola. "Our two churches have been engaged directly in mission out reach, concerned for the quality of life and peace and justice for the Beoples of Angola, for more than 100 years. We view this recogni tion' step by the Clinton administra tion as a very positive and construc tive action to help bring peace and stability to a long-suffering people. Through our Joint Ministry in Africa Mission Program, we have worked for several years to assist in the reconciliation of conflicts within Angola. In recent months, we have strongly encouraged our govern ment's recognition of these bona fide elections held in the fall of 1992 and express our unqualified support for this recognition. We look toward our govern ment's continued support and con cern for the well-being of the Angolan peoples as it recognizes and welcomes this Angolan govern ment among the community of nations."
