Cuban leader Fidel Castro met with Angolan President Jose Eduardo dos Santos, the government said on Sunday.
Dos Santos, who arrived in Cuba on Thursday and was scheduled to leave on Sunday, is the first foreign leader since early June to meet with Castro.
The two leaders discussed "the complicated problems that humanity is facing today, and which fundamentally impact the people of the poorest nations," a statement said.
They also talked about Cuba's role in Africa, the statement said.
On Friday, Castro gave his first television interview in more than three months since his last appearance on Cuban television on June 5.
Appearing on television, a seated Castro looked thinner and still fragile, but alert and lucid.
Speculations on Castro's health have abounded since he handed over power to his brother Raul Castro, Cuba's defense minister, in July 2006 before undergoing surgery for intestinal bleeding.
He has not been seen in public since then, but has written regularly in the country's official newspapers on current affairs.
