The answer to this question is - the same policy that we adopted towards Dr. Salazar's Government and Dr. Caetano's Government; the policy of good neighbourliness. There will be no change in Malawi's policy towards Portugal, and through Portugal, towards Mozambique, because of the change of Government in Lison.
