| Tlo historyczne | Angola is rebuilding its country after the end of a 27-year civil war w 2002. Fighting between the Popular Movement dla the Liberation of Angola (MPLA), led by Jose Eduardo DOS SANTOS, and the National Union dla the Total Niepodleglosc of Angola (UNITA), led by Jonas SAVIMBI, followed independence from Portugalia w 1975. Peace seemed imminent w 1992 when Angola held national elections, but UNITA renewed fighting after being beaten by the MPLA at the polls. Up to 1.5 million lives may have been lost - and 4 million people displaced - w the quarter century of fighting. SAVIMBI's death w 2002 ended UNITA's insurgency and strengthened the MPLA's hold on power. President DOS SANTOS has announced legislative elections will be held on wrzesien 5 and 6, 2008, z Presidential elections planned dla sometime w 2009. |

| Miedzynarodowe dyskusje | many Cabindan separatists have returned to the province from exile since the 2006 ceasefire and peace agreement; concerns from international experts and local populations over the Okavango Delta ecology w Botswana and human displacement scuttled Namibian plans to construct a hydroelectric dam at Popavalle (Popa Falls) along the Angola-Namibia border |
| Ekonomiczna pomoc - pobieranie | $441.8 million (2005) |
| Ekonomia | Angola's high growth rate is driven by its oil sector, z record oil prices and rising petroleum production. Oil production and its supporting activities contribute about 85% of Produkt krajowy brutto. Increased oil production supported growth averaging more than 15% per year from 2004 to 2007. A postwar reconstruction boom and resettlement of displaced persons has led to high rates of growth w construction and agriculture as well. Much of the country's infrastructure is still damaged or undeveloped from the 27-year-long civil war. Remnants of the conflict such as widespread land mines still mar the countryside even though an apparently durable peace was established after the death of rebel leader Jonas SAVIMBI w luty 2002. Subsistence agriculture provides the main livelihood dla most of the people, but half of the country's food must still be imported. In 2005, the government started using a $2 billion line of credit, since increased to $7 billion, from Chiny to rebuild Angola's public infrastructure, and several large-scale projects were completed w 2006. Angola also has large credit lines from Brazylia, Portugalia, Niemcy, Hiszpania, and the EU. The central bank w 2003 implemented an exchange rate stabilization program using foreign exchange reserves to buy kwanzas out of circulation. This policy became more sustainable w 2005 because of strong oil export earnings; it has significantly reduced inflation. Although consumer inflation declined from 325% w 2000 to under 13% w 2007, the stabilization policy has put pressure on international net liquidity. Angola became a member of OPEC w late 2006 and w late 2007 was assigned a production quota of 1.9 million barrels a day, somewhat less than the 2-2.5 million bbl Angola's government had wanted. To fully take advantage of its rich national resources - gold, diamonds, extensive forests, Atlantic fisheries, and large oil deposits - Angola will need to implement government reforms, increase transparency, and reduce corruption. The government has rejected a formal IMF monitored program, although it continues Article IV consultations and ad hoc cooperation. Corruption, especially w the extractive sectors, and the negative effects of "Dutch disease" produced by large inflows of foreign exchange, are major challenges facing Angola. |
