The party also says it will summon Foreign Minister Paulo Rangel to parliament.
“Following yesterday’s words from the President of the Republic, Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa, reinforcing the idea of reparations for the Portuguese colonial past and even declaring that Portugal should lead this process, CHEGA will present next week to the Assembly of the Republic, an official vote condemning the President of the Republic and the words he said , which undoubtedly represent a betrayal of the Portuguese people and their history. The Minister of Foreign Affairs addressed Parliament to find out whether there are any contacts on this issue with the Portuguese-speaking states or any specific request addressed to the Portuguese state,” reads the statement, to which CM had access.
Let us recall that this Saturday Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa said that the country must take responsibility and correct the consequences of the period of colonialism.
