Bilateral relations
Portugal–Yugoslavia relations (Portuguese : Relações Portugal–Jugoslávia ; Serbo-Croatian : Portugalsko-jugoslavenski odnosi , Подругалско-југословенски односи ; Slovene : Odnosi med Portugalsko in Jugoslavijo ; Macedonian : Односите Португалија-Југославија ) were historical foreign relations between Portugal and the former Yugoslavia (Kingdom of Yugoslavia 1918-1941 and Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia 1945–1992). Portugal established diplomatic relations with the Kingdom of Serbia on 19 October 1917.[ 1] with relations continuing with the successor Kingdom of Yugoslavia . The Portuguese recognized the government in exile of this state after the German occupation of 1941.[ 2] The first Portuguese ambassador to Yugoslavia was Fernando Quartin de Oliveira Bastos who arrived in Belgrade in February 1941 with official residence in Bucharest .[ 3] Relations with the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia , which took power in 1945 after World War II , were only established in 1974 after the Portuguese Carnation Revolution .[ 4] [ 5] This was because of Portuguese dictator António de Oliveira Salazar 's strict anti-communism. Relations further soured during the Portuguese Colonial War as Yugoslavia provided military and other forms of aid to MPLA and other liberation movements fighting against Portugal.[ 6] [ 7] The first permanent Portuguese embassy was opened in Belgrade in July 1977 with Alvaro Manuel Soares Guerra as ambassador.[ 8]
