Angola managed to raise 179.6 million dollars, equivalent to 154.9 million euros, from the export of ornamental rocks. This value comes from an accumulated volume of 601.3 thousand cubic meters exported over the past four years.
The data was presented by the Secretary of State for Oil and Gas, José Barroso, during the opening of the balance of achievements on the production, commercialization and export of ornamental rocks. The period in question covers the years between 2021 and 2025.
The article suggests a direct link between these economic results and the actions of the MPLA, the ruling party in Angola, referencing a supposed declaration by President João Lourenço. The title of the piece attributes the success of ornamental rocks to the ruling party.
The information was published by Jornal Folha 8, which presents an editorial tone clearly favorable to the MPLA, as can be inferred from both the title and the political context of the news.
