Portugal–Yugoslavia relations 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]
