Luanda – The minister of State and Head of the President's Military Office, Francisco Furtado, on Thursday in Luanda granted an audience to the United States (US) Ambassador to Angola, Tulinabo Mushingi, where they analysed the agreements made on defence fields between the two states.
According to a press release that ANGOP had access to this Thursday, the meeting is framed in the implementation of the Memorandum of Understanding on defence and security between the Republic of Angola and the United States.
The document says that Tulinabo Mushingi has reported that senior officials from the US department of defence and security are planning to visit Angola this month.
It states that the visit by senior US officials is aimed to assess and evaluate the action underway, as well as implementing another plan for the modernisation of the Angolan Armed Forces and other bodies.
