He argued that &#8220;there should be no other type of distance and separation&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>The President of the Republic recalled that during his last state visit, held a few years ago, he also had the opportunity to hold a meeting with the Angolan community residing in Portugal. But on that occasion, he said, it was in a different format than yesterday.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It was a formal meeting, in a meeting room, in a question-answer format. This time I understood that we should change the format to be closer to each other, not in a meeting, but in an environment like this, without major protocols&#8221;, he said, when justifying this Friday&#8217;s dinner.<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday, Joa\u0303o Lourenc\u0327o went from table to table, the first being the one where the musician Barcelo\u0301 de Carvalho &#8220;Bonga&#8221; was sitting, with whom he exchanged some impressions.<\/p>\n<p>Angolans in Portugal express support for Joa\u0303o Lourenc\u0327o<\/p>\n<p>The Angolan community in Portugal expressed, yesterday, in Lisbon, the purpose of &#8220;unconditionally supporting&#8221; the efforts of President Joa\u0303o Lourenc\u0327o in maintaining territorial cohesion, peace, national reconciliation and the well-being of all Angolans.<\/p>\n<p>The support was expressed by professor Manuel Nzenza during a dinner hosted by the Angolan Embassy in Portugal, as part of the Head of State&#8217;s visit to Lisbon.<\/p>\n<p>Manuel Nzenza highlighted, however, that, like any community, the Angolan community in Portugal also has &#8220;challenges&#8221; that sometimes require the direct intervention of State institutions or non-profit community associations, as is the case of students, sick and citizens in prison and others.<\/p>\n<p>The Angolan community in Portugal, according to Manuel Nzenza, also feels the need for socio-cultural spaces where it is possible to promote and develop the country&#8217;s culture.<\/p>\n<p>However, he said he was witness to the efforts and determination of President Joa\u0303o Lourenc\u0327o who, through representatives of the Angolan State in Portugal, has made efforts to, as far as possible, mitigate some of these challenges.<\/p>\n<p>The Angolan community was grateful for the fact that the President of the Republic included a meeting in his visit to establish direct interaction with Angolans residing in Portugal, which, until last year, numbered around 56 thousand citizens.<\/p>\n<p>Joa\u0303o Lourenc\u0327o, in turn, launched the challenge that one day the Angolan community abroad would organize an event of this kind, with the President appearing as a &#8220;mere guest&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/angola\">Angola<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Angola.
