Angola: Chairs stay empty around the Cabindan negotiating table

Despite claims that the Angolan government has opened a dialogue to bring peaceful resolution to the conflict in Cabinda, their counterparts in the enclave have yet to be invited to the table. The Angolan armed forces chief of staff, general Agostinho Nelumba 'Sanjar', told Ecclesia, a local Catholic radio station, on Monday (March 13) that "the government has opened a dialogue and, in the near future, the problem will be resolved".
