Chega wants to deport foreigners in illegal situations or convicted of serious crimes

dnoticias.pt2 September 2026 at 10:04

The Chega party defends a deportation policy for foreign citizens who are in illegal situations in Portugal or who are convicted of serious crimes. The position was expressed by deputy Francisco Gomes, a member of the party in the Assembly of the Republic.

Francisco Gomes argues that Portugal should adopt a demanding migration policy, which prioritizes integration and respect for laws, constitutional values and fundamental norms of Portuguese society.

According to the parliamentarian, the State should reject the permanence of foreigners who do not comply with these criteria, whether through their irregular situation in the national territory, or through the practice of serious crimes that deserve condemnation.

EU Court blocks environmentalists' attempt to force Brussels to cut more emissions

The EU General Court rejected an action brought by the environmental organizations Global Legal Action Network (GLAN) and Climate Action Network Europe (CAN Europe), which aimed to force the European Commission to review the emission limits assigned to Member States by 2030. The organizations argued that the 55% reduction target is insufficient to meet the Paris Agreement's goal of limiting warming to 1.5°C, advocating for a reduction of at least 65%. However, the court decided that the Commission does not have the power to alter, through internal mechanisms, targets that were set by the European Parliament and the Council, i.e., by the European legislator. The decision does not validate the EU's climate ambition, but only the institutional competence to change these objectives.
