The Liberation Front of Portuguese Guinea and Cape Verde (Portuguese: Frente de Libertação da Guiné Portuguesa e Cabo Verde, FLGC) was a militant political party in Guinea-Bissau, then part of Portuguese Guinea, formed to seek independence from Portugal.[1]
It was established in Dakar in 1960 by Amilcar Cabral and Henri Labėry from an amalgamation of the Liberation Movement of Portuguese Guinea and the Cape Verde Islands (French:Mouvement de Liberation de la Guinee Portugaise et des Iles du Cap Vert, MLGCV) with other groups such as the Liberation Movement of Portuguese Guinea (Portuguese: Movimento de Libertação da Guiné Portuguesa, MLGP)
Its life was short due to internal conflict and it was soon replaced by the United Liberation Front (Front Uni de Libération, FUL), a predecessor of the Struggle Front for the National Independence of Guinea (Frente de Luta Pela Independencia Nacional da Guine-Bissau, FLING)
