It will be paid with the December pension and will cover more than two million pensioners. On the same day, the Prime Minister, Luís Montenegro, stated - in a declaration to the country, without the opportunity for questions, from the official residence in São Bento, Lisbon - that the initiative was part of a set of measures approved by the government to "strengthen the response" to the crisis caused by the rising cost of living. #SegurançaSocial #Pensões #Economia (translated)

Paulo Rangel said: the agenda for this meeting was business, tourism, commerce, and some international topics, more specifically, something that Luís Montenegro mentioned would be on the table, the current situation in the Strait of Hormuz and the impact it is having on the Portuguese economy and the European Union. #OrçamentoDoEstado #Política #RelaçõesInternacionais (translated)

"We will have the opportunity to talk and discuss all the issues that are globally relevant to the international community and, therefore, also these, but also within the scope of our bilateral relations."

"The Portuguese contribution to the Union budget is higher than that of all the frugal countries (except Austria), if we analyze it (as it should be, especially in a single market) in proportion to each one's GDP. I say one simple thing to all: giving 10 out of 100 is much more than giving 50 out of 1000. If we are not able to solve the concrete problems of people, we open space for the growth of demagoguery, populism, and extremism. That is why our response cannot be merely technocratic and rhetorical. It has to be political." In this context, Luís Montenegro did not fail to respond directly to the frugal countries: "The Portuguese contribution to the Union budget is higher than that of all the frugal countries (except Austria), if we analyze it (as it should be, especially in a single market) in proportion to each one's GDP. I say one simple thing to all: giving 10 out of 100 is much more than giving 50 out of 1000.

That is why our response cannot be merely technocratic and rhetorical. It has to be political." #Portugal #UniãoEuropeia #Coesão (translated)
