MEP Alvaro Amaro, leaving the European Parliament (EP) on July 7, once the “parliamentary activities and legislative work” related to Portugal is completed, nominated the social democrat to the Lusa agency.
“Following my decision to resign as an MEP, this Wednesday, the resignation was formalized, with effect from July 7, 2023, taking into account the parliamentary activities and legislative work of direct relevance to Portugal, for which I am responsible. “, said Alvaro Amaro in a statement sent to Luce.
The Social Democratic MEP announced on April 28 his decision to step down from his mandate after the Protective Court gave him a three and a half year suspended sentence for evading the execution of a sentence, a sentence he announced his intention to appeal.
With the departure of Amaro, Carlos Coelho returns to the EP, next on the PSD list and a veteran of the European half-cycle.
