In the congratulatory message, to which Angop had access, João Lourenço extols the exemplary journey made by the United States of America in more than two centuries, “in which they achieved great conquests, in all levels of national life, projecting the Nation in the world as an unavoidable reference in political, economic, scientific and technological terms”.
The Angolan statesman emphasizes that the two countries and governments have made great efforts towards the continuous strengthening of friendship and bilateral cooperation relations.
“For this reason, I want to express our conviction that we are on the right path, which will lead to the construction of solid foundations on which important joint achievements will be built, with mutual benefits”, reads the message.
