The Chega party postponed the announcement of a motion of no confidence against the Government, according to the news. The decision to postpone came after Luís Neves made a promise to "defeat populism", which is said to have influenced the party's strategy.

André Ventura, the leader of Chega, is expected to maintain the intention to topple the Government, but has not yet defined when he will proceed with the announcement. The party will define the appropriate timing to carry out this attempt to destabilize the executive.

The article states that there is a prepared response to what was described as Luís Neves's "unqualified" speech. He is said to have stated that the promise to combat populism constitutes an "additional motivation" to politically face Chega.
