The diplomat was speaking to press on the occasion of the celebration of the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, established by the United Nations (UN).

“Palestine and Angola are friendly countries, whose relations are very credible and historic”, expressed the ambassador, stressing that the relationship between the parties dates back to the struggle for the Independence of Angola, via the leaders Agostinho Neto and Yasser Arafat, when the country Africans received help from Palestine.
