The President of the Legislative Assembly of the Azores, Luís Garcia, argued that the affirmation of the autonomous region should be a "national design" during a solemn session commemorating the 50 Years of Autonomy of the Azores.
Luís Garcia made these statements in the context of the celebrations of the fiftieth anniversary of Azorean autonomy, which marks half a century since the region obtained its political and administrative autonomy status.
In his speech, the president of the Legislative Assembly highlighted the importance of considering the valorization of the Azores not only as a regional issue, but as a commitment made by the entire country.
This solemn session commemorated a historic moment for the archipelago, recognizing the achievements made over five decades of autonomy and reaffirming the relevance of Azorean identity in the Portuguese context.
