Front line states

Leaflet publicising a meeting on the first anniversary of elections in Angola in September 1992. UNITA, led by Jonas Savimbi, refused to accept the result of the elections, won by the MPLA. Angola was plunged into renewed civil war, with hundreds of thousands of people fleeing their homes. The Angola Emergency Campaign was set up by the AAM and the Mozambique Angola Committee to draw public attention to the Angolan war.

In October 1994 Mozambique held its first multi-party elections after 18 years of civil war. Under the slogan ‘Mozambique Now!’ the AAM and the Mozambique Angola Committee lobbied the British government to help ensure that the opposition group RENAMO observed the Mozambique peace agreement reached in October 1992. They worked to ensure that British organisations were better informed about the situation in Mozambique and pressed for more international election observers.
