António Ferreira's Opinion: Time of Tyrants

Jornal O Interior12 September 2026 at 10:00

The AfD won by a wide margin the elections in Saxony-Anhalt, Germany. This result is mentioned in an opinion article by António Ferreira that alerts to the growing influence of right-wing parties in Europe.

The article mentions that other parties are also preparing for upcoming elections, including Vox in Spain, Reform UK in the United Kingdom and Fratelli d'Italia in Italy.

In France, Marine Le Pen emerges as the favourite for the presidency, representing a growing threat to the country's traditional political establishment.

The article concludes by warning that support for Le Pen's election arrives openly or covertly, suggesting a support network that transcends national borders and that fuels this trend of growth of European far-right parties.

Why this matters

This article is relevant for Lusophone readers because it discusses significant changes in the European political landscape that affect EU policy direction and transatlantic relations. The electoral results and trends mentioned in the article could have profound implications for the future political direction of Europe.

Indian prime minister calls on BRICS for a roadmap to reform global governance

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi called at the BRICS summit in New Delhi for a roadmap to reform global governance, arguing that the current structure functions as a pyramid where power and decision-making are concentrated at the top, while affected countries lack the capacity to influence. Modi outlined three axes for reform — representation, responsiveness, and norm-making — and stressed that the reform of the United Nations Security Council "can no longer be postponed," demanding negotiations with set deadlines. India, which holds the rotating presidency of the bloc, sought to position BRICS as a platform for reforming the international system and not as a confrontation alliance, arguing that the Global South should cease being merely a recipient of norms to participate in their development.
