"Against radicalism". Paulo Portas calls for debate on demographics

RTP Notícias29 August 2026 at 21:10

Paulo Portas participated in the PSD Summer University, where he warned of the need for Europe to address the demographic issue. The former deputy prime minister considered that the debate on demographics is essential to stop the growth of radicalism on the European continent.

According to Paulo Portas, Europe faces demographic challenges that cannot be ignored. His intervention was part of the broader theme of combating radicalisms, suggesting that appropriate demographic policies can be a response to the social tensions that feed extremist movements.

The PSD, by organizing this university event, provided a forum for the discussion of structural issues affecting the future of Europe. Portas's intervention reflects a growing concern in certain political circles with the interplay between demographic changes and political instability.
