In the original #Portuguese article, the Defense Minister is interviewed and categorically rules out the purchase of #F35 to replace their #F16 [which presumably would go to Ukraine] and confirmed that Portugal is already talking the the #French about alternative fighters.

Continued thread

Cape Verde's small population considered “white” was in turn divided into Portuguese-born officials and into those born locally, who the metropolitan #Portuguese derisively referred to as brancos da terra, and degredados, soldiers and civilians exiled for criminal or political reasons. The latter categories could include those of black #African and mixed descent, since in the Lusophone world “whiteness” was determined by political and economic power and by the ability to exhibit European cultural markers. Next to these “whites” there was a group of often mixed-race pardos, both free and enslaved. The lowest category, pretos, was made up of blacks who could be enslaved or freed, converts to Christianity and born on the islands or from numerous societies in western #Africa. By the end of the 17th c. at the latest, the Cape Verde islands had developed a distinct Creole identity. (2/7)

Perhaps you are a longing for a #SilentSunday, in this case this week’s #BlackHistory #emdiplomacy take offers you a relaxing weekend read:

Today we focus on #CapeVerde which were discovered by the #Portuguese in the middle of the 15th c. In 1466 the islands received trading rights in West #Africa. Cape Verde provided a stopover on the transatlantic slave trading route. Moreover, plantations were established there. However, #earlymodern Cabo Verdean society was decidedly mixed. (1/7)

I am currently convinced that the #Portuguese make the best desserts in the world. I will give bonus points to the French for crème brûlée (plus the Catalonians for their equivalent) and to the Italians for tiramisu. But damn, every dessert from #Portugal is great.

Doesn’t hurt to have it accompanied by amazing #Fado singing.
