The president of Chega, André Ventura, accused the Portuguese opposition of suffering from "a kind of courage schizophrenia" with regard to the motion of censure against the Government.

According to Ventura, the expected rejection of the motion of censure results from this attitude that he characterized as contradictory on the part of the opposition parties.

The statement was made in the context of the debate on the motion of censure against the executive, where Ventura expressed his critical position regarding the way the opposition positions itself vis-à-vis the Government.
