Guinea-Bissau’s Francisco Fadul said on Tuesday his government had achieved most of its goals since he became interim prime minister on 18 February, Lusa reported.
The goals include the reconciliation of opposing forces in the nation of 1.2 million people after a military uprising ousted President Joao Bernardo Vieira from power on 7 May. Lusa quoted Fadul as saying that national reconciliation “should not be an act of force but rather one of agreement, deliberation and freedom of society”.
Fadul is not a candidate in elections to be held on 28 November.
