Synopsis

Botswana and· Zimbabwe's current bilateral trade relations date back to the now revised
Untied Kingdom brokered 1956 Customs Agreement between the British High Commission
Territories and the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland. This Agreement
free-èntry of goods originating in either country provided the local content total
more of the total invoiced value. The Ag~eement also include an Open General Impci.rt.
Licence (OGIL) clause whose implication was that all goods put onto the list
imported with guaranteed access to foreign exchange. Since the political forces in'
territories sought the same objectives there was no conflict of interests which worked tQ
undermine the 1956 Agrement. Under this Agreement the Botswana-Zimbabwe traqe,
interaction seems to have gone on smoothly. without problems.
Attempts at finding solutions between 1982 and 1992 proved difficult. With this problem
research set out to investigate the reasons for the change from conflict-free trade
and conflicts; attempts at resolving the disputes by negotiating to update the 1956 Agreement
and the difficulties which attended these attempts. Interviews, Archivai sources
