Mesquita Nunes criticized the tone used by conservative women in political debate. The former politician and former CDS leader lamented the attempt to radicalize public debate.

The tension arose after Margarida Balseiro Lopes criticized the movement to which Rita Matias belongs, from the Chega party. This exchange of criticisms between female figures of the conservative spectrum generated media attention.

Mesquita Nunes, who currently holds the position of Ombudsman, publicly expressed his displeasure regarding the way the debate has been proceeding between these women.

The episode highlights divisions in the Portuguese conservative camp, with the former centrist leader calling for a more moderate tone in political discussions between different ideological currents.

CIA director's visit to Moscow raises speculation about NATO and peace negotiations

The unannounced visit by CIA Director John Ratcliffe to Moscow last Tuesday sparked intense diplomatic speculation, with Donald Trump confirming the presence of the US intelligence chief in the Russian capital. According to The Wall Street Journal, Ratcliffe is said to have delivered a preemptive warning to Moscow against any aggressive action against NATO countries, while also addressing tensions in the Middle East and Iran's influence. The White House downplayed the trip, but the convergence of sensitive topics indicates a moment of high strategic sensitivity. Moscow, through Dmitry Peskov, rejected reports of a NATO ultimatum, accusing European governments of hostility. Trump reinforced that he had maintained "good conversations" with Putin and assured that the Kremlin does not intend to attack territories covered by Article 5, while European intelligence services confirmed there are no signs of Russian offensive preparations against the EU or NATO.

Why Brazil doesn't have an atomic bomb, as proposed by Renan Santos?

Brazil has never developed an atomic bomb despite having advanced technologically in the nuclear sector. The main reason is the absence of a concrete external threat that would justify the enormous investment needed to create a nuclear weapons program. Additionally, the high costs of development, maintenance, and the international diplomatic consequences made the proposal politically unviable. The article also mentions Renan's position on the topic.
