Abstract
Analyzing the Czechoslovak economic and political involvement in Angolan affairs after the country’s independence from Portugal in 1975, Pavel Szobi’s chapter shows that Czechoslovakia had not just been a junior ally of the Soviet Union, but had more room to manoeuvre in foreign affairs, thus implementing an active and independent foreign policy towards the African county. The text illustrates how the engagement of Czechoslovakia in Angola depended on the local economic issues of other socialist countries, overall the GDR and Poland.
