Luanda – The Agostinho Neto Foundation might count on the assistance of the Republic of Cuba to enrich its archive, assured this Tuesday here the Cuban minister of  Culture, Abel Prieto.

 “We will do everything to assist the foundation in enriching its archive, with document and testimonials on Neto's presence in Cuba, based on the letter of the chairperson of the Foundation, Maria Eugénia Neto, which was delivered to us this Tuesday, in which she appeals for our support on this matter", he assured.

 Abel Prieto, who is in the country since Saturday, made this affirmation to the press at the end of the visit he paid to the Agostinho Neto Foundation.

 To him, at a sensible era of the history of the African and Latin American continents, Agostinho Neto showed his intellectuality and wisdom.

 He said that visiting this foundation was an emotional moment, due to the care given to the intellectual figure of Agostinho Neto, great friend of the nationalist and former Cuban President, Fidel Castro, and of the Cuban people in general.

 Besides the Cuban minister, the Angolan deputy minister of Culture, Cornélio Caley, the administrator of the Agostinho Neto Foundation, João Saraiva de Carvalho, and the Cuban ambassador to Angola, Pedro Ross Leal were also part of the visit.

 Abel Prieto, who is in Angola at the invitation of his Angolan counterpart, Rosa Cruz e Silva, will end his work visit on Thursday.
