What the great jurist has forgotten is that the
communists were in power in Portugal. In Angola it is
believed that the MPLA, the communist backed rebel
group were given the powers to ruin Angola. The
process of decolonisation hook or by crook were
designed by the UN and followed by those in power in
1974 in Portugal.
