The leader of the Chega party, André Ventura, shared on social media a video showing two women wearing Islamic veils judging and disapproving of another woman's clothing and pose. In the post accompanying the video, Ventura questioned the adaptation of immigrants to "our values" and defended that "if it were the other way around it was racism and xenophobia". SIC Verifica decided to analyze the authenticity of the video shared by the politician. The article questions whether the footage is true, without yet presenting the conclusion of this verification.
