Luís Montenegro highlights AD's "successes" and says Portugal is growing above the EU and the Euro Zone, but this was already happening under António Costa's Government

Luís Montenegro closed the PSD's Summer University with a speech that followed the usual model: he listed the successes of the Democratic Alliance, criticized predecessors and opposition, and ended with announcements. The PSD leader highlighted that Portugal is growing above the average of the European Union and the Euro Zone. However, the article notes that this economic growth was already occurring during António Costa's Government. The reference to the fact that the Portuguese economy was already growing above the EU and the Euro Zone before the current administration appears as a context note that partially contradicts the success narrative presented by Montenegro.
