In a note released this Wednesday, the Presidency of the Republic says that Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa said Portugal “will continue to invest in bilateral relations, for the benefit of the citizens of both countries”, by strengthening the ties of friendship and cooperation that unite them and “finding new opportunities for their development and deepening at all levels, but also within the framework of the Ibero-American Conference”.
