Cat hiding with its tail out?

In recent months, Paulo Rangel's handling of reparations claims from Caribbean and African nations has raised questions. Portugal abstained from a UN vote on reparations for historical injustices, leading to ambiguity about its stance. Rangel met with Ghana's foreign minister, who claimed Portugal showed willingness to address reparations, a statement Rangel denied. He clarified that Portugal rejects reparations but acknowledges past mistakes. Critics argue that the government should clarify what 'reconciliation' entails, as historical grievances seem resolved since independence. The article also compares Portugal's situation to the UK, where leaders are reconsidering apologies and reparations for slavery, suggesting Portugal might follow suit.
