Talk:UNITA

message: North Korea actually did not support UNITA, it supported the MPLA. This, in fact, is largely what contributed to the cooling of relations between Zaire and North Korea during the 1970s (culminating, in 1977, with the withdrawal of North Korean military advisors). source
:DPRK supported UNITA, extensively, as detailed in the source I provided. Please sign your posts with four tildes (~). Perspicacite 04:46, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: 1977? The MPLA started fighting against the Portuguese in 1961. Your evidence is that they started working with the MPLA sixteen years after they resorted to armed conflict? Perspicacite 04:55, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm aware of that. 1977 is the year North Korea withdrew its military advisors, not the year it started supporting the MPLA. However, I concede the point, I was unaware N.K. had actually supported the MPLA. Josh 04:04, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: North Korea

message: So what about the UNITA of today? What do they stand for? In the past their ideology has shifted from Maoism to social democracy to conservatism. At present is UNITA a party of the Right, Left or Centre? They seem, ironically enough as of 2008 to be taking a leftwing line against the MPLA, by complaining that the nation's oil wealth has not been distributed to Angola's impoverished majority. 
Can anyone help in this area?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.239.105.104 (talk) 00:28, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Confusing ideology

message: This article has a clear pro-CIA bias. Probably written by some deep-south segregationist as an apologia for their personal involvment in their failed attempt to prop up apartheid.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.195.81.207 (talk) 13:11, 29 September 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: So today an IP attempted to move this article to National Union for the Total Independence of Angola via a cut and paste move, which is . . .  less than ideal.  It's been reverted, but does anyone think this article would be better at that title?  If so we can move it properly.  I just want a consensus to point to first. ~ ONUnicorn(Talk|Contribs)problem solving 02:32, 20 November 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I think the current title should be kept. Whenever i read history and news-related books they always refer to UNITA rather than the full name. Vif12vf/Tiberius (talk) 11:03, 20 November 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, UNITA was referred to the world over by its acronym rather than its full, slightly unwieldy name. Same thing goes for the MPLA and FNLA. --Ismail (talk) 22:17, 17 October 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Move 

message: I feel like this article in general is really barebones and deliberately hides the role that Executive Outcomes had in assisting the MPLA in their fight against Unita. Specially in aiding the MPLA taking back from UNITA several mines which were being used to fund UNITA's war effort. This must be corrected. 179.35.13.37 (talk) 03:38, 27 December 2022 (UTC)
