gus. It comprised of 326 officers, 1295 sailors and 2473 marines.
German soldiers are training in Portugal.
A French missile tracking station is going to be established
in one of the Azores Islands, Horta.
On the 3rd January the General Secretary of NATO will be
visiting Lisbon for talks with Salazar.
A CORDIAL APPROACH
From 1962 closer economic and military relations between
Portugal and South-Africa were formed, in order to maintain white
domination in the Southern Africa.
In February 1963 the South-African revue "Check" published
an article from which we quote extracts, because it expresses the
exact nature of the relations, the intentions and the aims of the
Salazar-Verwoerd alliance.
"After many years of indiferent policy
now a cordial approach is being made
"The Europeans of the South part of Africa already refer to
South Africa for financial and, if necessary, military assistance
in order to maintain their independence. That is the case of Portugal. And the South-Africans realised also that the Zambeze river,
the Angolan forests, the Savanas of the North of Mozambique are
the first defence lines against the threat represented by the pan-
africanist Africans from the North."
"Pretoria looks for allies in the Continent, and is prepared
to support them, be their government European, African or Mixed.
Anyhow, Tschombe is nothing but a South-African hero".
