My country (Portugal) supported the South African government under Apartheid until 1974. In return we had South African support regarding our war in Angola and Mozambique against the Soviet-backed negro rebellious pro-independence guerillas. After the fall of the right-wing Estado Novo regime in Portugal the government's position changed and joined that of most other Western, liberal democracies.

USSR backed, China backed, USA backed, Estado Nova fell because the butchery of portuguese militaries. Here in Brazil we still have portuguese people that fled to not end dying into the bush, some even changed their documents to not surfer persecution. Brazil was a military regime then they were very solidary with their portuguese partners of arms.

Australia has mostly had quite close relations with South Africa, both politically and economically, we even have a relatively big South African community here.

Australia was definately anti-apartheid, at least in the 70s, it was influence from the civil rights movement in America that came to Australia, that's what would've influenced Australias position. Prior to the 70s, I'd guess they would've been supportive or neutral, Australian and South African relations were weakened during the 70s and 80s.

Well ,i am of the opinion that no race can just steal a country and rule it,then even disciminate the originals

Let the blacks handle Africa how they know,i mean they alone know they cant do a good job with no whites,so i am guessing they want the whites to stay.Black people do not have the inteligence to rule,because of the history...not because they are less inteligent naturally
