Angola's Minister of Foreign Affairs, Téte António, defended today that the African Union (AU) Luanda Summit should move from political statements to concrete solutions for crises in Africa. The main message from the Angolan official was that it is necessary to move from words to action.
The representative of Angolan diplomacy was speaking at the opening of the African Union Executive Council meeting, which has the mission of preparing the documents under discussion at the 21st extraordinary summit of heads of State and Government. The Angolan capital, Luanda, is hosting this event of great continental relevance.
The ironic title of the article, "Look at what Angola says and not at what it does," suggests an implicit criticism of Angola's position, questioning whether the country practices domestically what it preaches on the international stage. This apparent contradiction between external discourse and domestic practice is the critical theme of the article.
