Luanda - The Deputy Speaker of the Parliament of Central African Republic (CAR) Bernard Dillah expressed Monday gratitude for the support the Angolan government provided to his country "in the most difficult moments".
The recognition was expressed at the end of a meeting with the Angolan National Assembly Speaker Carolina Cerqueira.
The MP said when his country "experienced difficult times, Angola was always on our side and President João Lourenço remains as a mediator in all the crises we are going through".
He noted that his country's Parliamentary entourage came to personally express this gratitude to the National Assembly, as the people's representative.
Bernard Dillah, who heads his country's Parliamentary delegation, was also the bearer of a letter from the Speaker of the CAR Parliament to his Angolan counterpart, Carolina Cerqueira, the content of which was not revealed.
In 2021, at a meeting of the Security Council on the CAR, the President João Lourenço, as acting president of the International Conference on Great Lakes Region (ICGLR), defended the end of the arms embargo on the CAR and asked for more international support for peace and security, as well as such as the neutralisation of dissident forces in the country.
At the moment, there are seven cooperation agreements between Angola and the CAR.
They are General Cooperation Agreement, Protocol on Regular Political and Diplomatic Consultations, Protocol on the Indicative Cooperation Programme, Financial Support Protocol, Memorandum of Understanding, Revised General Agreement of Cooperation and Memorandum of Understanding on Political Consultations.
