Lisbon, ANGOLA, February 19 - The Portuguese minister of Justice, Francisca Van-Dúnem, reaffirmed on Tuesday in Lisbon the commitment of her country to cooperate with Angola in the organization of the courts of the southern African country. ,

The Portuguese official, who was speaking on the sidelines of a meeting with the Angolan Supreme Court Chief Justice, Joel Leonardo, said Portugal is interested in sharing all its judiciary experience with Angola.
