Dear Thabo Mbeki,

I acknowledge receipt of your letter and extend my appreciation for the candor and goodwill with which you have expressed your intentions regarding the future of your nation’s relationship with the Kingdom of Sweden.

Having ended the apartheid regime alongside support from our allies in Thailand and Israel, we have retained governance of South Africa for almost a decade - having had an overwhelmingly positive independent referendum, supporting the presence of Sweden in South Africa.

That said, Sweden has always championed democratic values, peaceful cooperation, and mutual respect among nations. Your expressed desire for request for independence will be treated with seriousness and dignity. However, these matters fall within the domain of my government and relevant departments, particularly the Department of Foreign Affairs and the Office of the Governor-General of South Africa, which I will instruct to open channels of dialogue with your office.

In the spirit of peaceful cooperation and shared development, I welcome further formal diplomatic engagement through appropriate channels. Sweden remains committed to international law, respect for sovereignty, and the promotion of peace and security on the African continent and beyond.

Regards,
Carl XVI Gustaf
His Majesty the King
Kingdom of Sweden
