This Thursday, the Secretary General of the PKP noted that the President of the Republic, in his speech on April 25, “lost sight” of the difficulties faced by the people, as well as the “political options” that led to the current situation.
Speaking to journalists at the end of a solemn meeting dedicated to the 50th anniversary of the Carnation Revolution, the communist said that Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa made “an intervention limited to numbers and names, missing two fundamental aspects, above all the political options that led to these various points that the President described, and without paying attention to the concrete reality of people’s lives and the solutions that opened up with the 50th anniversary of April and which need to be implemented.”
Paulo Raimundo said he supported the head of state’s “idea that democracy requires answers to be given to the majority of people” and said that “this must be accompanied by concrete measures” such as “increased wages, access to the National Health System.” Service, access to education, less instability, less unregulated schedules, less pressure on the lives of the majority of the population.”
“We believe that the President of the Republic, having made a general statement about the difficulties in which people live, forgot to move on to the specific, he ignored specific life,” he criticized.
Paulo Raimundo said that over the past five decades the country has been going through “a process of right-wing politics with extraordinary improvements from a post-revolutionary point of view, naturally, but which leads and pushes towards a path of increasing inequality” and emphasized that April “was called upon to respond to the majority, not to the minority.” .
“And it is this path that needs to be reversed, it is this cycle of right-wing politics that needs to end once and for all and return to the path of April, the path of justice,” he said. declared, demanding that the rights enshrined in the Constitution, the creation of which “costs so much,” be reflected in the life of every person.”
