One takes Angola as an example, in 1978 Melo Antunes led an official Portuguese delegation to Luanda to maintain the continuity of political dialogue. The relationship between the two countries entered a new phase. One could say that at present there is a better relationship between Portugal and Africa. However one has to be aware that when it comes to politics everything is a game of interest, every single action is taken with the intent of gaining something else. After 500 years of the relationship coloniser and colonised, one cannot expect that the relationship between these countries to be like a love story with a happy ending, at least not yet.
Resentment still exists from both sides.
After all it has been only 20 years since the Portuguese speaking countries obtain their independence. The populations of these countries continue to face problems left by the legacy of colonialism. There are people from both countries blaming each other for what happened. But the reality is that both Portugal and Africa are to blame for what happened. In both places there are people who actually got richer and richer during colonialism, people from the elite classes in both places feed themselves with the blood of people who never wanted colonialism to happen and died for colonialism to end.
