Mozambique’s President Filipe Nyusi received his counterpart from Tanzania in Maputo on Wednesday to strengthen political, economic and social cooperation between the two countries, the Mozambican Presidency announced on Tuesday.

“The visit of the [Tanzanian] President, Samia Suluhu, to Mozambique comes in response to the invitation made by the Mozambican head of state and is part of the strengthening and deepening of historical ties of brotherhood and solidarity,” the Presidency said in a statement sent to the media.

The President of Tanzania began a state visit to Mozambique today, which is expected to last until Friday.

The programme also includes a visit to the Maputo Combined Cycle Power Plant on Wednesday.

Nyusi and Samia Suluhu are also due to “exchange views on issues of common interest at the level of southern Africa, the African continent and the world,” the Presidency concluded.

Tanzania is one of the countries that is part of SAMIM, a military mission of the Southern African Development Community (SADC), with soldiers supporting Mozambican troops fighting the armed insurgency in Cabo Delgado, in the north of the country.
