CNN Portugal3 September 2026 at 14:19

The Russian diplomatic representation in Portugal explained to the Portuguese government its posture regarding the events in Leipzig, Germany. The explanation comes in the context of what Moscow designates as the "interesses do regime de Kiev".

The Russian diplomatic mission in Portugal accused Ukraine of trying to "involve the European Union as deeply as possible in the confrontation" with Russia. This accusation is part of the Russian narrative about the conflict.

The article does not specify what the concrete events in Leipzig were that prompted this explanation, nor what the practical consequences of this communication between the Russian representation and the Portuguese authorities were.

Nikolas uses praise to announce explanation about audio with Vorcaro: 'I'm cutting my hair to look gorgeous'

Federal deputy Nikolas Ferreira (PL-MG) reacted with irony to the publication of an audio by the ICL Notícias portal in which he asks banker Daniel Vorcaro, founder of Banco Master, to help an ally in a negotiation involving a mining asset. Hours after the report was published, Nikolas posted a video cutting his own hair and stating he is getting ready to "look gorgeous," in reference to one of the leaked messages. He announced he would republish an official statement at noon. According to ICL, the audio sent to Vorcaro on March 30, 2025, dealt with a request on behalf of lawyer Thiago Rodrigues de Faria, former aide to the parliamentarian's office.

Elevador da Glória: PS insists on the creation of a commission in the Municipal Assembly of Lisbon

One year after the Glória elevator derailment, which caused 16 dead and 24 injured, the PS at the Lisbon Municipal Assembly has again insisted on creating an ad hoc commission to follow up on the municipal response to the accident, a proposal that had been rejected three months ago by the right-wing majority (PSD, CDS-PP, IL and Chega). The socialists argue that the final report from the investigation authorities has been postponed to early 2027, but that the political responsibility of the assembly cannot be equally postponed, noting that indemnification processes remain incomplete and that victims and families continue to await answers. The proposal aims to oversee the actions of the municipality and Carris, the company responsible for the century-old elevator, without replacing the investigations by GPIAAF or the Public Ministry, but focusing on the implementation of safety recommendations and the development of the new elevator projected for 2029.
