RTP Notícias8 September 2026 at 13:30

Luís Neves, Minister of Internal Administration, again guaranteed that he will not resign from his position. The official made it clear that he will only leave the government if the Prime Minister, Luís Montenegro, removes him from the executive.

During his statements, Luís Neves admitted to having made some errors in the exercise of his duties. However, these errors do not lead him to consider the possibility of resigning from the position he holds.

This position arises at a time of political pressure on the minister, who has been the target of criticism related to his performance at the helm of the Internal Administration portfolio.
