Portugal’s secretary of state for foreign affairs said on Thursday that the Portuguese cooperation strategy will expand in Africa beyond Portuguese-speaking countries and includes the health systems of partner countries as one of the priorities in this area.

“The area of cooperation and development is a structuring part of Portuguese foreign policy and complements two fundamental areas: the political and diplomatic dialogue with our partner countries, but also the situation of economic and trade exchanges, the work of our economic agents in those countries,” explained Francisco André, in an interview with Lusa.
