José Francisco Pavia: «Morocco will retaliate with migration flows as a geopolitical weapon»

Now12 September 2026 at 13:55

José Francisco Pavia stated that Morocco could retaliate by using migration flows as a geopolitical weapon. The statement was made in the context of a broader discussion on international geopolitical issues.

The discussion initially focused on the situation in the Middle East, after Saudi Arabia closed the East-West Axis pipeline. This closure was due to attacks using drones that were reportedly launched from Iraq.

The main theme of José Francisco Pavia's intervention centered on the possible consequences of geopolitical tensions and on how different countries can use migration as an instrument of political pressure.

Why this matters

This article is of interest to readers in Portugal and Europe because it addresses the possibility of Morocco using migration as an instrument of political pressure, which could have direct implications for European migration policies and for relations between the EU and North Africa. The mention of the closure of the Saudi pipeline due to drone attacks highlighting geopolitical instability in the Middle East adds a context of global energy vulnerability that also affects European markets.

The time we steal from teachers

An opinion article analyzes the impact of bureaucracy on the work of Portuguese teachers, citing data from the OECD's TALIS 2024 study which reveals that 79% of lower secondary teachers identify excessive administrative work as a source of stress. The text highlights that, although teachers work an average of 40.5 hours per week, only 2.8 hours are dedicated to administrative tasks, but these cause stress due to their fragmentation and interruption of essential tasks. The article proposes measures such as reviewing non-teaching tasks, eliminating duplicate information and unnecessary reports, warning that digitizing old forms does not solve the underlying problem. Only 4% of surveyed teachers feel their opinions are valued by policymakers.
