André Ventura used the term "gangster" to refer to Luís Neves, in an exchange of political accusations that escalated in recent days. Luís Neves responded to the attack from the Chega leader, refusing to submit any resignation and going on the offensive against Ventura's party.

Following this exchange of accusations, Luís Neves adopted a confrontational stance towards Chega, trying to reverse the narrative of events. The situation became particularly tense in the Portuguese political scenario.

Helena Pereira decided to intervene in the controversy, highlighting issues she considers to be at the origin of this entire conflict. According to her intervention, there are fundamental aspects that remain unresolved and that are essential to understanding the true nature of the dispute.
