President Nana Akufo-Addoo (L) with President of Angola Jo\u00e3o Manuel Gon\u00e7alves Louren\u00e7o <\/strong><\/p>\n
The President of the Republic, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, has held bilateral discussions with his Angolan Counterpart, Jo\u00e3o Manuel Gon\u00e7alves Louren\u00e7o, aimed at strengthening the bilateral ties between the two countries.<\/p>\n
Addressing a joint press conference with President Louren\u00e7o on Friday, 9th August, 2019, President Akufo-Addo noted that the bilateral talks have \u201cput Ghana-Angola relations on a new level.\u201d<\/p>\n
The President noted that the two leaders have resolved to collaborate on all fronts, \u201cworking for the eradication of poverty in Africa, for the integration and unification of the continent, for the peaceful resolution of conflicts, and for the search for global peace and security to promote sustainable development around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n
With President Akufo-Addo being the first Ghanaian President to visit Angola, he indicated, at the joint press conference, that their meeting centered on boosting the political and economic relations, cultural and people-to-people exchanges, as well as co-operation at the multilateral level.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur deliberations also centered on driving investment opportunities, domestic and foreign, into our two countries, and the need for enhanced co-operation and partnership in our development efforts. Towards the realization of the 2030 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, we touched on the need to promote a better world, and addressed global issues relating to the 17 Goals,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
The President expressed the appreciation of the Ghanaian people and their Government to the Government and people of Angola for the support Ghana received in her bid to host the Secretariat of the African Continental Free Trade Area.<\/p>\n
Whilst the two leaders held closed door discussions, the ministerial teams of the two countries also held discussions aimed at deepening the bilateral relations between the two countries, and exploring, in detail, areas of possible co-operation between Ghana and Angola for the mutual benefit of their two peoples.<\/p>\n
The discussions, in the areas of education, trade and industry, agriculture, fisheries and aquaculture, environment, science and technology, petroleum and hydrocarbon activities, and tourism, were held in an atmosphere of fruitful cordiality. <\/p>\n
\u201cAs a result, we have agreed to revive and convene the 6th Session of the Permanent Joint Commission for Co-operation between our two countries, within the next two months, to be held in Luanda. The Commission serves as the legal framework for addressing the trade and investment concerns of our two countries,\u201d President Akufo-Addo noted. <\/p>\n<\/figure>\n
Just as the early leaders of Angola and Ghana were united by their common struggle to free their peoples from foreign domination and exploitation, the President stressed that \u201cso we are united in our determination to win the battle for rapid economic development, by helping to transform our economies from dependence on the production and export of raw materials into value-adding, industrial economies, anchored on the things we make and grow.\u201d<\/p>\n
It is this transformation, he explained, \u201cthat will give us the best opportunity to derive maximum benefit from our abundant natural resources, and from our participation in the African Continental Free Trade Area, and help bring progress and prosperity to our peoples.\u201d<\/p>\n
President Akufo-Addo applauded President Jo\u00e3o Louren\u00e7o for the efforts he is making to consolidate the process of national reconciliation and multi-party democracy in Angola.<\/p>\n
\u201cThese are worthwhile initiatives, and we can only urge him to remain steadfast in this quest. The work being done to establish accountability is, clearly, in the right direction, as it will help drive the important agenda of economic transformation of Angola,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
