The Reconquista movement is accelerating its internal process to transform into a political party at a time when a poll assigns it 5.2% voting intentions. This is a nationalist movement that advocates remigration as a central part of its political proposal.
The coordinator of the movement, Afonso Gonçalves, promises a "disruptive project for the country," signaling significant electoral ambitions. The party expects to elect deputies in the next legislative elections, benefiting from the favorable moment revealed by the poll data.
The transformation into a party formalizes a structure that has until now operated as a movement, allowing it to compete directly in elections. The growth in voting intentions comes in a context of increasing nationalist and anti-immigration sentiment in Portugal, similar to what is observed in other European countries.
