UN General Assembly
1979

47. We would like to express our appreciation and our feeling of the profound solidarity between our country and the United Republic of Tanzania, which has, in the interests of our people, built a nation in dignity and courage under the enlightened and wise leadership of their respected leader, Julius Nyerere. The United Re-public of Tanzania is a fraternal country for which we in Cape Verde have great admiration, and we are proud of the bonds which have united us since before our independence. 48. We should also like to pay a tribute to the outgoing President of the General Assembly, Mr. Indalecio Lievano, who, thanks to his political experience and competence, was able to conduct our last session in a successful manner. It was a difficult session in many respects.
