President of the Republic gives deadline to prime minister to decide future of Luís Neves in Government

Now28 August 2026 at 20:37

The President of the Republic set a deadline for the prime minister to make a decision about the future of Luís Neves in the Government. The situation puts pressure on the executive to resolve the question of the interior minister.

António José Seguro expressed his opinion that Luís Neves does not meet the necessary conditions to continue exercising the position of interior minister. This position of the former Socialist Party leader reinforces the debate about the continuity of the Government member.

The case arises at a moment of particular attention to the composition of the executive, with voices within the Socialist Party expressing themselves about the suitability of Luís Neves to lead the Interior Affairs portfolio. The prime minister's decision on the matter is awaited within the deadline set by the Presidency of the Republic.
