AFRICA: A LACONIC AND BRIEF LOOK

Mozambique
The road to an everlasting peace is closer after the meeting between President Nyusi and the main opposition leader, Afonso Dhlakama.
A concrete deadline was announced for the conclusion of the peace process.
By the end of the year, if everything goes well, we will have the peace process concluded. A few more steps were taken earlier this month, with military issues and decentralization expected to remain the main factors of discussion between the Mozambican Government and RENAMO.
Hopefully, Felipe Nyusi, at least on this peace promotion subject, will be more successful than in the economic and development issues of the country, because contrary to what he has been proclaiming, Mozambique isn’t being put back on track.        

Angola
The MPLA foam at the mouth since the “Makangola” site disclosed the results of the electoral poll.
Not surprisingly, it has long been clear the Angolan population doesn’t trust this dictatorial regime disguised as a democracy commited by José Eduardo dos Santos and his useful cronies.
The election results shall not reflect how much the MPLA regime is hated by the Angolans, since one acknowledges the results will be rigged once again.
However, it is already clear the MPLA is terrified by the changes that is progressively erupting in Angolan society. I tis quite obvious, especially among the young Angolan university population, more educated and, consequently, more aware of the lies and crimes perpetrated by the Angolan government.
