Foreign Policy
Cabo Verde pursues an open, multilateral foreign policy, maintaining strong ties with Portugal, the EU, the United States, and Lusophone nations through the Community of Portuguese Language Countries (CPLP). It is a member of ECOWAS and the African Union but its island geography gives it a distinct profile.
Praia has positioned itself as a mid-Atlantic hub for connectivity between Africa, Europe, and the Americas. It advocates strongly for the blue economy, climate resilience, and the special needs of small island developing states.
