Mortagua stated that she learned of Pedro Nuno Santos’ position in the debate and when asked if she was surprised, she replied that the only reason she was not surprised was “because that is the only way to achieve agreement for this to be written.”

These priorities for the country “can force Portugal to turn the page with an absolute majority, recover from the crisis it has created and secure a more dignified future for all who want to live here.”
