Luanda:  The French ambassador to Angola, Francis Blondet, said Friday in Luanda, that the Angolan Government should continue to invest in the agricultural and human development as they are the main areas for progress of a country.

The diplomat said so at a ceremony which marked the end of his mission term.  He said that Angola needs to develop the food sector and other areas in which the country is very rich, in order not to depend on oil alone.  To him, the bilateral relations existing between Angola and France during his three years term were excellent from the political, economic and cultural points of view.

The event was attended by members of the Angolan Government, diplomatic body and other figures.
