**Analysis**
This text appears to be discussing a meeting of the United Nations Security Council, where decisions were made regarding the participation of certain countries in a discussion about the situation in territories under Portuguese administration. The text mentions several African countries and does not seem to be related to economic development, natural resources, industry, transport, communication, international trade, health, education, employment, humanitarian aid, or science and technology. It also does not seem to be related to culture, as the focus is on a political decision rather than a cultural issue.
