The President of the Republic, Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa, asked this Sunday to give dignified status to the military, without which “there is no strong Armed Forces,” considering that it is impossible to destroy a unique moment in the history of Portugal.
“(…) Strong Armed Forces are ships, planes and armored vehicles, but they are, first of all, those who sail, pilot and control them and who either have the worthy status of being a military man and remaining a military man, or, once again, “ It is possible to destroy a unique moment in our history, just as it is impossible to destroy a unique moment of fulfilling what remains to be accomplished in the Statute of Former Combatants,” said Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa.
In Batalha (Leiria), where he presided over the ceremonies marking the 106th anniversary of the Battle of La Liza and Combatant’s Day, where the Minister of National Defense Nuno Melo was also present, the Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces considered that “it is so easy to understand here. next to the monastery of the struggle for national sovereignty, that it is important not to waste any more time searching for what should have been evidence long ago.”
