On Tuesday, the leader of the PS parliament called on the prime minister to clarify whether he has political confidence in Minister Miguel Pinto Luz, who will lead the privatization of TAP, saying that because he was involved in a similar process, he was “shrouded in suspicion.”
Alexandra Leitan responded to reporters in parliament after learning of a report by the Inspectorate General of Finance (IGF) which concluded that David Neeleman’s purchase of TAP was financed by a $226 million loan from Airbus in exchange for the purchase of 53 aircraft from the European planemaker.
“It is urgent that Luis Montenegro comes and says whether Miguel Pinto Luz can continue to lead a process similar to the previous one, which showed that there was no transparency and that it was shrouded in suspicion,” he said.
