CABINDA AND THE DIASPORA, THE URGENCY OF A QUALITATIVE AND REVOLUTIONARY LEAP

Folha 829 August 2026 at 11:48

The fight for Cabinda's self-determination is at a critical turning point after several decades of advances and setbacks. The Cabinda cause currently faces a complex geopolitical scenario, marked by diplomatic stagnation and the fragmentation of forces both internally and externally. The intervention methods used no longer meet the demands of the 21st century, making new paradigms of action necessary.

To change the balance of forces and truly inscribe the Cabinda question on the international agenda, the diaspora is called upon to spearhead a deep strategic rupture. The article argues that a qualitative and revolutionary leap must be made in how the struggle for self-determination is conducted, abandoning approaches that have proven ineffective over time.

The author of the article is Osvaldo Franque Buela, who presents a diagnosis on the need for change in the Cabinda diaspora's actions. The text was published in Folha 8 Newspaper and addresses the urgency of transforming the intervention strategy to address the contemporary challenges of the Cabinda cause.
