Antonio Costa announces that Pedro Nuno Santos will helm Portugal at the Cape of Good Hope.

Outgoing Prime Minister António Costa expressed this Friday his confidence in the victory of the PS and warned that Portugal faces a storm in the fight against inflation and needs Pedro Nuno Santos as the helmsman at the Cape of Good Hope.

This position was taken by António Costa at the traditional Trindade lunch in Lisbon, before the intervention of the Secretary General of the PS and the traditional descent of Chiado, an initiative that was attended by the former Socialist leader Ferro Rodrigues and the President of the Assembly of the Republic Augusto Santos Silva.

On his second campaign appearance for Sunday’s legislative elections, the former Socialist general secretary began his speech with a note of optimism: “This lunch in Trindad means that we are two days away from the great victory of the PS and the election of Pedro Nuno. Santos as the next prime minister.”

Next, the former Secretary General of the PS tried to sum up what, in his opinion, is being discussed in the Sunday elections.

“Now that all indications are that we have turned the tide of the storm, we need to ensure that this moment of change means we are at the Cape of Good Hope. It is very important that we do not go backwards and do this. don’t destroy what has been done,” he said.

According to António Costa, with the new helmsman Pedro Nuno Santos, it is necessary to give “new impetus to the journey that began in 2015.”

Earlier, the Prime Minister emphasized that “the last two years have been very difficult for the Portuguese people, for companies and for the government.”

“They were more difficult than in two years of the pandemic” [da covid-19]. During the pandemic, the problem was more complex and the impact on people’s lives was greater, but we knew that with prevention and a vaccine we could fight this disease. In the fight against inflation, it was much more difficult to know how to do it,” he explained.

Antonio Costa noted that inflation reached 10.2% in October 2022, but has now fallen to around 2%.

“Interest rates have stabilized and there is a prospect that they may start to fall. In the last quarter of last year, Portugal was the country in the Union that grew the fastest, with the highest employment, and the OECD told us it had the third-highest real increase in household income,” he said.
