Perspicacite, can you explain this revert? I hear that the Figaro contradicts the other source on the worth of the deals, maybe this should be underlined ? Why privilege an English-speaking source over Le Figaro? And why remove the paragraph about Angolan personalities? Tazmaniacs 16:00, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
 * It's not the info itself but the grammar. This makes no sense:
 * "In total, the arms deal (which also included six war ships), unauthorized by the French government, concerned $790 million worth"

The following paragraph is interesting...: "On the Angolan side, several names appeared during the investigations, although they have not been indicted by the French justice. These included the president Eduardo Dos Santos, the Minister of Industry Joaquim David, the Angolan ambassador in Paris, Eliseo Figuereido, who would have organized meetings with Falcone, the secretary of the Council of Ministers Jose Leitao Da Costa, the General Fernando Araujo, a counsellor of president Dos Santos, Maria Do Carmo,the spouse of Leitao, and Alexandre Nuno, a cousin of Leitao"

...but it doesnt go into any real detail. In terms of improving the overall article the roles these individuals played needs to be spelled out. Perspicacite 18:13, 17 September 2007 (UTC)


 * All right, thanks for explanations. Maybe we could rephrase the sentence, something like: "The arms deal (which included six war ships and was unauthorized by the French government) was valued at $790 million" ? Tazmaniacs 18:19, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
 * That's good. Perspicacite 18:21, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

The intro says there was US gov. and business man involvement, but I'm not seeing that in the article. Can someone elaborate on what it was or remove that sentence? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.52.215.67 (talk) 00:49, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Rich, Safa, Yeltsin
What is the relevance of these three individuals to this article? Picaroon (t) 03:12, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
 * They've all been mentioned as somehow connected to the scandal. I'm not sure how they're connected though, hence they are in the see also section. Feel free to remove them for now. Jose João (talk) 05:01, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

Title?
Angologate is a colloquial name and i don't think it should be the title. Mitterand-Pasqua Affair would be much more fitting title because there is no reason to relate this incident to watergate. --Givengels (talk) 00:36, 30 October 2009 (UTC)
