The President of the Republic, Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa, received Pedro Nuno Santos this Wednesday after the 24th National Congress of the PS, which ended on Sunday. The new Secretary General of the PS began by saying that he did not want to “disclose the contents”, but noted that it was “a good meeting with the President of the Republic.”
Pedro Nuno Santos said that the party is focused on the PS victory scenario.
“The TGV project was created when I was still in government, and now the conditions are in place to launch the competition,” he told reporters. “The railway issue was taboo and it is thanks to me, as minister, that this national railway project was restored,” added Pedro Nuno Santos.
“Over the weekend I was careful to preserve the relationship between the PS and the President of the Republic,” says the PS general secretary.
Regarding the problems that the country faces today, namely the demonstrations of the security forces, Pedro Nuno Santos says that “the current government has committed to increasing salaries by an average of 20%, we want all security forces to feel motivated because we know that it will be much better this way.”
As for the employees of the Global Media Group, the new Secretary General of the PS expressed the hope that “the situation will be resolved as quickly as possible.”
“We are focused on March 10 and the work we have to do in front of the Portuguese,” he concludes.
