BOTSWANA<br />

On September 30, 1966, Bechuanal<strong>and</strong><br />

Protectorate became the <strong>in</strong>dependent state <strong>of</strong><br />

Botswana.<br />

In a note dated October 6, 1966, to the Secretary-General<br />

<strong>of</strong> the United Nations the President <strong>of</strong><br />

Botswana made a statement read<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> part <strong>as</strong><br />

follows:<br />

As regards bilateral treaties validly concluded by<br />

the Government <strong>of</strong> the United K<strong>in</strong>gdom on behalf <strong>of</strong><br />

the former Bechuanal<strong>and</strong> Protectorate, or validly<br />

applied or extended by the said Government to the<br />

territory <strong>of</strong> the former Bechuanal<strong>and</strong> Protectorate, the<br />

Government <strong>of</strong> Botswana is will<strong>in</strong>g to cont<strong>in</strong>ue to<br />

apply with<strong>in</strong> its territory, on a b<strong>as</strong>is <strong>of</strong> reciprocity, the<br />

terms <strong>of</strong> all such treaties for a period <strong>of</strong> twenty-four<br />

months from the date <strong>of</strong> <strong>in</strong>dependence (i.e., until<br />

October 1, 1968) unless abrogated or modified earlier<br />

by mutual consent. At the expiry <strong>of</strong> that period, the<br />

Government <strong>of</strong> Botswana will regard such <strong>of</strong> these<br />

treaties which could not by the application <strong>of</strong> the rules<br />

<strong>of</strong> customary <strong>in</strong>ternational law be regarded <strong>as</strong><br />

otherwise surviv<strong>in</strong>g, <strong>as</strong> hav<strong>in</strong>g term<strong>in</strong>ated.<br />

It is the earnest hope <strong>of</strong> the Government <strong>of</strong><br />

Botswana that dur<strong>in</strong>g the aforementioned period <strong>of</strong><br />

twenty-four months, the normal processes <strong>of</strong> diplomatic<br />

negotiations will enable it to reach satisfactory<br />

accord with the States concerned upon the possibility <strong>of</strong><br />

the cont<strong>in</strong>uance or modification <strong>of</strong> such treaties.<br />

The Government <strong>of</strong> Botswana is conscious that the<br />

above declaration applicable to bilateral treaties cannot<br />

with equal facility be applied to multilateral treaties. As<br />

regards these, therefore, the Government <strong>of</strong> Botswana<br />

proposes to review each <strong>of</strong> them <strong>in</strong>dividually <strong>and</strong> to<br />

<strong>in</strong>dicate to the depositary <strong>in</strong> each c<strong>as</strong>e what steps it<br />

wishes to take <strong>in</strong> relation to each such <strong>in</strong>strument<br />

whether by way <strong>of</strong> confirmation <strong>of</strong> term<strong>in</strong>ation,<br />

confirmation <strong>of</strong> succession or accession. Dur<strong>in</strong>g such<br />

<strong>in</strong>terim period <strong>of</strong> review any party to a multilateral<br />

treaty which h<strong>as</strong>, prior to <strong>in</strong>dependence, been applied<br />

or extended to the former Bechuanal<strong>and</strong> Protectorate,<br />

may, on a b<strong>as</strong>is <strong>of</strong> reciprocity, rely <strong>as</strong> aga<strong>in</strong>st Botswana<br />

on the terms <strong>of</strong> such treaty.”<br />
