Zimbabweans praise 'generous' Ian Smith By Stephen Bevan and a special correspondent in Shurugwi Last Updated: 8:27pm GMT 24/11/2007 For many black Zimbabweans, the death on Tuesday of Ian Smith, the last prime minister of white-ruled Rhodesia, was either to be welcomed or at best ignored.

Ian Smith left Zimbabwe in 2005 But...

Duncan Smith: A new Europe Keynote speech on European Policy in Prague "Two seismic world events have defined our times. They've framed a generation's hopes and its fears. On 9th November 1989 the Berlin Wall came down. The Cold War was over. The shockwaves from that event swept through the streets and squares of this historic city. Those of us old enough to remember 1968 were overjoyed when an old regime was soon overthrown and the true and indomitable spirit of the Czech people emerged again. The second historic event produced a very different kind of shockwave. Evil and...
