SAPO Notícias3 September 2026 at 05:00

The commander of the Lisbon Metropolitan Command of the PSP defended today that it is necessary to have "less alarmist discourse" on security in the public square. In the interview granted, the official argued that this is a matter that requires effective work and coordination between different entities.

The commander emphasized the importance of collaboration with local authorities as a fundamental part of this coordination. This position arises in the context of a broader debate on public security and the way this issue is communicated publicly.

The official in charge of the Lisbon PSP expressed his concern about the way security is addressed in public space, defending an approach more focused on concrete actions than on discourse that may generate unnecessary alarm among the population.
