Can Montenegro be the new Cavaco?

Público2 September 2026 at 00:01

The commentator Pedro Adão e Silva wrote an opinion piece questioning whether Luís Montenegro can be compared to Cavaco Silva in terms of political career and public stature in Portugal.

The article argues that wanting to be like Cavaco Silva is not enough — one must have the capacity and conditions for it. The commentator argues that Montenegro does not possess the academic, professional, and political experience that characterized Cavaco Silva.

Beyond the lack of experience, the author states that Montenegro also does not have the ethical attributes that would be necessary for such a comparison with the former President of the Republic and prime minister.

The text emerges as a critical reflection on Montenegro's political ambitions and the distance that, according to Pedro Adão e Silva, still separates the current politician from Cavaco Silva's legacy and profile.
