Mariana Leitāo, leader of the liberal initiative (IL).
“Red lines” in arrival with arrival have been the theme of the campaign in the week of the poll to the polls. Passos wants work in “whole” and Ventura liked it; Montenegro removes noise and piglet “will soon see”.
The leader of the liberal initiative followed in the footsteps of PSD president Luís Montenegro and avoided this Tuesday to speak of “Red Lines” in agreements with the arrival For municipal executives, after former Prime Minister Pedro Passos Coelho has asked for the end of these red lines that he believes to dismiss the arrival.
“The” red lines “of the candidates have to be those that are dictated by consciousness and, therefore, related to very particular, very special, very serious things. Taking it, we live in a democracy and we have to respect each other and we have to know how to work together, whatever the elected,” said Passos Coelho, in his second appearance for the PSD campaign – after showing Suzana Garcia on the PSD candidate, SINTRA, Marco Almeida, playing the Taco-A-Taco election with former Minister Ana Mendes Godinho, PS, and Deputy Rita Matias, from arrival.
Predicting a growth of arriving at the polls next Sunday, Passos asked Almeida that “seek support from those who are most in tune with what [quer] to do”.
Il “irreducible”, but “we will soon see” after the elections
“All liberal initiative candidates have a very clear view of what they want for the country, what they want for the municipality and are irreducible in the principles we defendin the ideas we defend, under what circumstances it is, ”explained Mariana Leitão.
“We are irreducible in principles and ideas, we are so much that the conditions for making coalitions were these: ideas and liberal principles to make the difference in people’s lives,” he said, after Luís Montenegro, also confronted with the same question, having classified as “noise” The evocation of possible municipal agreements with the party led by André Ventura.
In many municipalities, the polls point to the growth of arrival, which can lead to negotiations after October 12but Mariana Leitão prefers to be focused on the results of IL.
“At this moment I am very convinced that it will not be necessary [negociar com vereadores do Chega]we will win where we are competing, we will be able to make a difference, that’s what I am focused on until the end of the campaign, ”said the liberal leader.
After the “October 12th we will soon seeBut our ambition is to win, it is to be able to elect many people, to be determining to rule in many cities, ”with“ liberal ideas to get out of paper and be applied in practice, ”added Mariana Leitão.
“Local power is the power closest to people and we have to do the work with this ambition: we will never give up our principles, our ideas and our convictions and only then will we get a better future,” he said.
Ventura: Passos shows “Renaissance of the right”
The arrival of the arrival, André Ventura, considered that the statements of the former prime minister show that there is a “Renaissance of the right” And accused the PSD of being asleep.
“There was an evolution of Doctor Pedro Passos Coelho” and “clearly there was no such evolution of Doctor Luís Montenegro.”
“These people you see, this movement, this is the Right Right in Portugal, and it is important that this reagging is materialized now in the municipalities, presidential and legislature, when they arrive, I think that was it,” he added.
The Leader of Arri also criticized the reaction of Prime Minister and PSD leader Luís Montenegro for saying that “it is noise” to introduce in the final stretch of the campaign the theme of public post-election governability, considering that this will be a decision for voters next Sunday.
“When we see Professor Cavaco Silva to enter the campaigns we found very well, because he says what the left and that the cuddly right want. When we see Dr. Pedro Passos Coelho come in, then it no longer matters and it is noise, that is, only shows how the PSD is dormant,” he criticized.
“Today there is only one right in Portugal, this right is the arrival, and that was in the background, in other words, which said Dr. Pedro Passos Coelho,” said André Ventura.
The president of the arrival also interpreted the words of the former social-democratic prime minister as the need for the country to have “a profound change in the various areas” and that “it should not have put egos ahead of the importance that had to make security reforms, the fight against corruption, but from economic growth as well, tax reform”.
“What Dr. Pedro Passos Coelho said is what we have always said, which is, if the country had understood, we had not had elections in May, probably we had not had the whole crisis we had, and we had a much better country in some areas, in the control of immigration, in the laws, in the fiscal issue, the bureaucracy,” said the leader of the arrival.
Asked if I would like to have the support of the former prime minister in the presidential candidacy, André Ventura replied: “I want the people to support me, that’s what I want, I want the Portuguese people to support me.”
