Chega will meet today and on Tuesday with its national bodies to decide on a motion of censure against the Government. The meetings are taking place in Lisbon and aim to evaluate the party's position regarding the current political situation.
The Chega leader had previously announced that he would proceed with a motion of censure if the prime minister did not resolve the situation of the Minister of Internal Administration. This condition had been publicly presented as an ultimatum to the Executive.
The motion of censure represents one of the main tools available to the opposition to demonstrate its disagreement with the Government's actions and, potentially, force a political crisis. The outcome of this meeting could define the immediate future of governmental stability.
