BE said this Thursday that it does not believe the government or the president of the republic will come up with a “solution for the country” given that Marcelo Rebelo de Souza is “entangled in an arrogant and overbearing absolute majority.”
“The President of the Republic is entangled in an arrogant, overbearing absolute majority that does not take the country seriously. Today we know that we do not trust either the government or the President of the Republic in presenting the country with the decisions that the people expect. and what people need,” BE MP Mariana Mortagua said in statements to reporters in response to Marcelo Rebelo de Souza’s address to the country.
Blockist stated that the Portuguese “can always count on the fact that the BE will always seriously test this absolute majority, and that they trust the popular mobilization because they are the only ones who challenge the absolute majority.”
“All governments that don’t respond to the people and that don’t provide a political response to the people’s hardships are long-term governments,” he replied.
Believing it to be “not a palatial issue” because “it is important to decide what the life of the people will be like tomorrow”, Mariana Mortagua defended that “if the government gets tangled up in business and affairs, it is because it has no political answers for people’s lives.” “.
“We do not believe that the government or the president of the republic will come to a decision for the country, but that the country can rely on the power of popular mobilization. When the government is not obligated to listen to anyone else in parliament, it is obligated to listen to the streets,” he insisted.
When asked about the conditions for the continuation of Joao Galamba’s stay in government after the words of Marcelo Rebelo de Souza, the BE deputy said that she had not heard anyone, “except the prime minister, who understood” that the minister of infrastructure could continue.
The President of the Republic promised this Thursday that he would be “even more attentive and more involved in daily life” to prevent conflict factors that degrade institutions and “avoid the exercise of exclusive powers.”
In an address to the country from the Belen Palace in Lisbon, Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa said he did not want to use the powers given to him by the Constitution to interrupt governance, but stressed that he would not give them up.
The head of state called his disagreement with the Prime Minister’s decision to keep Joao Galamba as Minister of Infrastructure “a fundamental difference” and considered that this decision by António Costa affects “the trust, reliability, authority of the minister, the government and the state.”
