PSD says Chega's motion is out of place and that Ventura wants to appear on television

Correio da Manhã5 September 2026 at 20:54

PSD responded to the motion presented by Chega, considering the initiative out of place and out of context. Hugo Soares, on behalf of PSD, stated that Chega's objective is to get the country talking about issues that are not truly important.

According to Hugo Soares, André Ventura's party only wants to appear on television with this motion, rather than addressing issues relevant to Portuguese people.

This exchange of positions comes in the context of a political dispute between the two right-wing parties in Portugal, with PSD trying to downplay Chega's motion.
