The Soviets are heavily involved. the Bulgarians are involved. in fact. 250.000 tons of crude oil is delivered by the Soviets each and every year to Mozambique. Mozambique is militarily tied. economically tied to the East bloc countries. Now in 1975. the United States gave $10 million to help refugees. they were flooding Into Mozambique from the thendestabilized country of Rhodesia. Later on. however. we cut off development aid because the human rights violations were so incredible. In 1980 there was a signed document by the Secretary of State that these human rights violations that we are so concerned about had improved. and we should therefore be more than willing to contribute more aid to Mozambique.
