António Filipe stated that António José Seguro remained undecided about the general strike for a long time. Was it really like that?
The candidate for Belém supported by the PCP wanted to refer to Seguro’s lack of taking a position. However, there is no reason on this point: the announcement of the general strike was made on November 8th.
That same day, Seguro immediately asked the Government to resume dialogue with trade unions to avoid strikes.
Furthermore, he said he was “quite worried” and theremember that strikes only happen “when workers consider that there are no conditions to continue this dialogue”.
Thus, the SIC Polygraph assessment is: False.
