00:01:32Good evening, welcome to 24 hours. Pedro
00:01:35Passos Coelho admits he is considering returning to politics if
00:01:40image of missiles pointed at the country needs him if the PSD is not
00:01:42successful. Donald Trump announces a ceasefire on energy
00:01:46infrastructures. The truce between Ukraine and Russia
00:01:49surprised Zelensky, who stated that
00:01:53a solution can be found for the the Russians continue to bomb. Riyadh Airport was
00:01:56again attacked by the Houthis this Sunday after
00:02:00Saturday's offensive killed 13 people and injured another
00:02:03300, Pope Leo XIV revealed that he has a
00:02:07nodule in his lung and will be operated on in the coming days.
00:02:22Donald Trump announced a ceasefire on energy infrastructures between
00:02:26Russia and Ukraine, but Zelensky guarantees that he knows nothing
00:02:29about it. The announcement by the American president was made hours after the
00:02:33Ukrainian president had said that there would be
00:02:36presidential elections if there was a 60-day military
00:02:40truce.
00:02:42A few hours after Trump said it was time for elections in
00:02:46Monday, October Ukraine, the President of the United States announced an
00:02:49energy ceasefire with immediate effect, to stop
00:02:53attacks like this, in the Samara region of Russia, it is a
00:02:56crucial system for the export of crude oil. Trump
00:03:00writes that both countries agreed, but Moscow
00:03:03is silent, and Zelensky says it was news to him,
00:03:06despite having already argued that this is the first
00:03:09step towards ending the war.
00:03:22The first step is cease-fire energy is fire okay, if they want energy, we are open
00:03:26for this, don't attack us, don't kill our children.
00:03:42we also heard Zelensky already 16 and his
00:03:48Oriental aspects. And at its
00:04:08despite the tension with the American president, Volodymyr
00:04:10Zelensky guarantees that he continues to
00:04:13later, we don't even have the count on the support of the United States.
00:04:17And Volodymyr Zelensky says that after this ceasefire
00:04:20announcement, Russia attacked
00:04:23energy facilities in Ukrainian territory. In a
00:04:26social media post, the President
00:04:28ambition, they called for the of Ukraine explains that a power plant in Kharkiv was attacked
00:04:32tonight and that in the last week alone, the Russians carried out more than 200
00:04:35attacks against electrical facilities and another
00:04:3917 targeted gas and
00:04:42oil facilities.
00:04:46Riyadh International
00:04:49we immediately committed ourselves to Airport was again targeted by Houthi rebels from Yemen this Sunday. This new attack
00:04:52caused at least one death and 11 injured. Saudi
00:04:56Arabia considers the attacks a war crime, the latter support.
00:05:07party should have reached For the second consecutive day, the main airport of Saudi
00:05:11Arabia was again under attack, but nothing comparable
00:05:14to what happened Saturday, the airport was
00:05:17like this, it was the worst attack in the country in over a decade,
00:05:2113 people died, more than 300 were injured, they are
00:05:25of various nationalities, the Saudi Health Minister
00:05:29went
00:05:29to visit,
00:05:37how are you, God bless you, her father, God bless you,
00:05:40God bless you, may she be well, God willing.
00:06:12escalation in the conflict that has pitted Saudis,
00:06:15supporters of the Yemeni government and Houthi, rebel forces
00:06:19of this country, supported by
00:06:21Iran.
00:06:29From the UN Secretary-General to the Arab League, the tone is one of condemnation
00:06:33of the attacks, several European governments are advising their respective
00:06:36citizens not to approach Riyadh
00:06:39airport, the airport, in any case. This weekend
00:06:43it was closed.
00:06:47The Iranian Revolutionary Guard published in recent hours, an
00:06:52an aircraft carrier with a message: "We are
00:06:56waiting". In what seems an allusion to the sending by the United States of a
00:06:59third group of aircraft carriers and a
00:07:03unit of marine infantry to the Middle East. The
00:07:06forecast is that the force will arrive in the region in November.
00:07:10I recall that last week Donald Trump informed
00:07:13that there would be no new military actions against Iran before the
00:07:16legislative elections on November
00:07:193.
00:07:22And now José Pedro Teixeira Fernandes joins us, good
00:07:25evening, welcome. Let's look at these latest news
00:07:29of the day. Donald Trump announced this ceasefire on energy
00:07:32infrastructures, but it seems that neither Ukraine nor Russia
00:07:35knew about this ceasefire that was supposed to start immediately
00:07:39after this announcement. It's an announcement in that aspect. quite strange, but
00:07:43Trump always does things, or often things that
00:07:47are outside the usual diplomatic patterns,
00:07:50uh, the feeling is that there must have been some kind
00:07:54of conversations with Russia, uh, not
00:07:57with Ukraine, because Zelensky, according to public data, was even completely
00:08:01surprised when asked if he had agreed to a ceasefire,
00:08:04but Russia also didn't say
00:08:08anything, it's curious because looking at the Russian
00:08:11press. some manifestation,
00:08:15uh, the question is that Russia may also be playing here
00:08:18in this situation, knowing that Donald Trump is very
00:08:21interested in presenting some
00:08:25kind of agreement here, because this
00:08:28this measure
00:08:31is related to the diesel issue and to the
00:08:35agreement that Donald Trump made on Friday, at the beginning of the weekend,
00:08:39with Vladimir Putin, for the supply of diesel.
00:08:42to the United States, which naturally raised, both among allies and from
00:08:46the very beginning in Ukraine, and even within the Republican Party, considerable
00:08:50protest, uh, presenting a
00:08:53ceasefire in terms of attacks on
00:08:56energy infrastructures is certainly a way to
00:08:59justify this understanding with Vladimir Putin,
00:09:03uh, I don't know to what extent Russia in the conversations and Vladimir Putin with Donald
00:09:07Trump implied that it would be willing to do so, it seems that Trump
00:09:10anticipated what we heard from Zelensky,
00:09:13we heard, we read, by the way, Zelensky saying that even
00:09:17after this ceasefire announcement, Russia again attacked
00:09:20power plants, attacked, so this does not coincide at all with Donald
00:09:24Trump's statements, hh, it may be
00:09:27a statement also more aimed at the markets, in
00:09:30essence, trying to calm, I don't know
00:09:33and without more data it's difficult to evaluate, but it seems possible given
00:09:37that Zelensky has already come out to say that he is available if Russia also
00:09:40makes itself available, right. possible, but but it's a task that has
00:09:44proven very difficult so far, like everything that involves some
00:09:47peace negotiation with concrete results, we have had
00:09:51several times apparently even on the table this possibility of
00:09:54truces in the area of energy attacks, but the problem
00:09:57here is that for Ukraine, the attacks on Russia's energy
00:10:01infrastructures, more specifically on the refineries that are now at stake,
00:10:04uh, have proven to be a very
00:10:08effective weapon of war in the sense that they cause serious
00:10:12damage to what is fundamentally one of Russia's
00:10:16greatest, or probably even greatest, asset in terms of
00:10:18exports, the problem is
00:10:21that obviously Russia is also an
00:10:24important energy markets, it is
00:10:27under sanctions, naturally, but due to a
00:10:31set of circumstances that are not only related to the war between Ukraine and
00:10:34Russia, but also very much to the war in the Middle East and the issue of the
00:10:38Strait of Hormuz, uh, then with the refining capacities
00:10:41installed internationally in the United States, at this moment
00:10:45we don't have so much a shortage of gasoline, but we have
00:10:49especially a shortage of diesel, uh, Russia
00:10:52plays a relatively important role
00:10:55in this oil production that allows for easier diesel production
00:10:59in refining, which is precisely what is being attacked, but that is one of Ukraine's
00:11:02great war assets, it seems to you that this
00:11:06announcement is also somewhat related to a
00:11:09request that Trump made to Zelensky to leave the leadership of
00:11:12Ukraine, Zelensky came to say that he would hold
00:11:15elections if there was indeed this ceasefire in the
00:11:19bombardments, do you also think that this is a way for Trump to force
00:11:23what he came to say again.
00:11:25some break in trust from the United States in Ukraine? Perhaps
00:11:29so, things certainly have some relation. Uh, going back a bit
00:11:32and Trump again has at this moment a
00:11:36very negative very tense relationship with
00:11:39Zelensky, uh, because Trump had shown, at least since
00:11:43early September, a lot of displeasure, um, with the
00:11:46war strategy of Ukraine and specifically attacks on
00:11:50refineries in Russia, Zelensky repeatedly said
00:11:54that... that was a fundamental part of the military
00:11:57strategy to fundamentally force Russia into a
00:12:01serious negotiation. The question combined with what we saw this weekend,
00:12:05but uh it's
00:12:08difficult here also to understand
00:12:12if Trump put
00:12:15this just to provoke that situation of, well, it's time
00:12:19to find a new form of politics in Ukraine that facilitates
00:12:22negotiations or if it's just perhaps a thing. thing, I would say more
00:12:26short-term vindictive, because talking
00:12:29here's a quick note, Trump is usually quite vindictive
00:12:33about what he considers to affect his fundamental interests, not necessarily the United
00:12:36States, just remember that the souring of relations with
00:12:40Zelensky as soon as he entered the White House in this second term
00:12:44has some relationship that is not minor with the request he had made in his first term
00:12:48when he was campaigning with Joe Biden's son and with
00:12:50connections to Ukraine, so Zelensky ends up here
00:12:54getting, I would say, again caught in a gear where Trump
00:12:58wants a favor from Zelensky because he has midterm elections
00:13:02and Zelensky because he is here fighting for the survival of the state does not
00:13:05want to do it and probably is here in a process of
00:13:09revenge opening the way to some understanding with Russia and
00:13:13attacked Zelensky again on that issue he has been
00:13:16in power for many years he doesn't hold elections it only complicates the negotiation process I don't know
00:13:20if but it doesn't seem possible to hold elections in this context
00:13:24if he has some reason permanently
00:13:27under bombardments it is difficult to hold serious elections
00:13:30hence the 60 days and well that he speaks
00:13:34uh of course the question is once again
00:13:37whether both sides
00:13:40have conditions or have conditions I would say it's not even having conditions, it's whether they are
00:13:44sufficiently pressured by the United States to reach an
00:13:47understanding, we don't have many signs at this moment that this will
00:13:50happen, Russia's silence seems to be for now
00:13:53to gain time more than some...
00:13:56agreement on such a ceasefire, professor, looking at these recent attacks on Riyadh
00:14:00airport, are the Houthis here supported by
00:14:04Iran escalating the conflict,
00:14:07saying that if Saudi Arabia needed it, it would also enter these
00:14:11confrontations, well, hh, the
00:14:15Houthis at least are trying to show and it seems to me that perhaps more than
00:14:19escalating in some way it is always an escalation because
00:14:23there is seriousness, people died.
00:14:25in the center of the capital of Saudi Arabia, it affects
00:14:29the security, in essence, the image of security of Saudi Arabia, I would even say that it is
00:14:32probably the main intention of the Houthis at this moment, eh,
00:14:36because after those, eh, advances they had and even managed
00:14:39to reach the coast and control points of the, eh, in essence,
00:14:43near the Red Sea, eh, there was here a, eh, a
00:14:46counteroffensive by the forces supported by Saudi Arabia
00:14:50and probably the Houthis see in these attacks on the Saudi capital a
00:14:54way to... seriously affect the Saudi image
00:14:57and the feeling of security in the capital
00:15:00and gain, in essence, by demonstrating strength that they
00:15:04perhaps don't have so much, but but they cause a serious problem here for Saudi
00:15:07Arabia, now the question here has, eh, in
00:15:11essence, also several contours, one was the one that was implicit in your question,
00:15:15which is what the United States will do if it will do something different from what it has
00:15:18done, eh, Donald Trump has said that he does not want to
00:15:21get directly involved in the confrontation with the Houthis to support Saudi
00:15:25Arabia but it is fundamentally support in the rear
00:15:28for locating targets. The second question that we sometimes don't focus on much and is
00:15:32also important is, and these new allies, they are not new, but
00:15:36now they have an alliance. formalized that is the case of Turkey and
00:15:39Pakistan, what is their role, eh, eh, in this
00:15:43conflict that is increasingly seriously affecting Saudi Arabia,
00:15:47well, there has been some military support, h, at least
00:15:50advisors and some defense systems, but it doesn't seem
00:15:54enough to stop this issue with the Houthis, so, eh, there is
00:15:57here a, a double complex scenario, eh,
00:16:00where, in essence, also Donald Trump, perhaps, eh, by not
00:16:03giving more support to Saudi Arabia also.
00:16:07a way not to get too involved in the conflict, but also perhaps a way to show
00:16:11Saudi Arabia that it depends, it continues to depend much more on the
00:16:14United States than it imagined, perhaps by having now this
00:16:18alliance with Turkey and Pakistan, very well, José Pedro Fernandez, thank you for the
00:16:22analysis, good evening, thank you, good
00:16:23evening,
00:16:26the Pope will be operated on to remove a
00:16:30nodule from his lung, it was detected in routine examinations and is
00:16:33circumscribed, Leo XIV made the announcement in St.
00:16:36Peter's Square.
00:16:39It was from the window of the apostolic palace that Pope Leo
00:16:42XIV gave the news.
00:16:45Dearest ones. Recently, during some
00:16:48check-ups, the doctors found a
00:16:52circumscribed nodule in my lung. It
00:16:56was detected at a very early stage and well
00:16:59localized. Leo XIV is 71 years old, he will be
00:17:03operated on in the coming days and the expected period of hospitalization for the pre-operative.
00:17:37we are truly sorry because the Holy Father
00:17:41is, let's say, new and we all
00:17:44feel a great concern like for a close family member,
00:17:48this worries us so much, we hope that
00:17:51everything will be resolved for the best
00:17:55better pretty soon because it's
00:17:58only a little time that is there
00:18:02so hope better for him I think
00:18:06that
00:18:37who were in St. Peter's Square and confirmed the visit to the
00:18:40country. Here, reactions to the Pope's
00:18:44announcement multiplied. Américo Aguiar also praises
00:18:48the simplicity of Leo XIV. Dozens of faithful
00:18:51wish him a speedy
00:18:53recovery.
00:18:56A few hours after the announcement of Pope Leo XIV,
00:18:59wishes for a speedy recovery are added, but above all
00:19:03praise for the attitude of the leader of the Catholic Church. It was
00:19:07a...
00:19:11his simplicity, which I think he has a lot of, for me I think he has a lot of John Paul II
00:19:15events
00:19:18simplicity made him tell all Christian
00:19:21people to pray for him, always very sad
00:19:25news for anyone, not that it's him or
00:19:28especially really a man that we miss, very, very, very
00:19:32sad news, I ask a lot, I will ask
00:19:34already, I ask every day. Ask a lot for
00:19:38him, because everyone has their place, but undoubtedly this one also captivates
00:19:42people a lot, I think he will achieve a lot for the world
00:19:46and for peace. At the inauguration of the new Eucharistic sanctuary of
00:19:50Balazar in Póvoa de Varzim, the Vatican representative
00:19:53in Portugal, the Archbishop of Braga, who also did not
00:19:57forget Leo XIV. that
00:19:59he told me that he intends
00:20:03to come to Portugal, because for him he
00:20:06spoke emphatically.
00:20:09that he will come, he will come when
00:20:12is very complex, a joyful surprise to
00:20:16be the Pope himself communicating this at the end of the Angelus
00:20:20prayer there at the window, I greatly admired the
00:20:23gesture, and
00:20:26pray for him, on social media, Cardinal
00:20:30Américo Aguiar took the opportunity to leave a
00:20:32tribute to the simplicity of the Holy Father and add a
00:20:36word of...
00:20:38It is very important for the days we live in that the news was
00:20:42given directly by the Pope and with all this
00:20:46transparency, simplicity and humanity. We are together
00:20:50with the Pope in these days that are certainly of some
00:20:53sensitivity, but I am convinced that it will be something almost
00:20:56routine. In a statement, the Portuguese Episcopal Conference
00:20:59also expressed spiritual closeness to the
00:21:02Pope and wished Leo XIV
00:21:06a quick and full recovery.
00:21:10The Minister of Finance says that a return to the budget
00:21:14deficit would be inexplicable, with this budget, the
00:21:17statements later in this newspaper.
00:21:24Pedro Passos Coelho admits a return to political life if the
00:21:28PSD is not successful, the former
00:21:31prime minister argues that the party had an
00:21:34obligation to have tried an agreement with Chega and the Liberal
00:21:38Initiative at the beginning of the legislature to govern
00:21:41for 4 years. In an interview with CIC
00:21:44Notícias, Passos Coelho admitted that the government has a transformative
00:21:48ambition but has been slow to advance with
00:21:51reforms.
00:21:55for several years he opted for silence so as not to harm the
00:21:58party, to which he says he remains emotionally and
00:22:02unreservedly attached. Pedro Passos Coelho denies seeking
00:22:05prominence, but does not close the door to an eventual return to active
00:22:09politics. If I had to consider such a
00:22:13possibility, it would correspond to a situation in which the PSD,
00:22:16visibly, did not have the possibility of delivering...
00:22:20a satisfactory result, given what the
00:22:23country needs, for me to think that I
00:22:26could do it, if that happens, I will consider it and
00:22:29take the initiative, if necessary. says the country plunged
00:22:33into day-to-day management and insists on the need for
00:22:36reforms. acknowledges that the current parliamentary geometry is
00:22:40complex, but says that the PSD should have tried
00:22:43solutions to guarantee support for a program capable of
00:22:47being executed throughout the legislature. a very complicated
00:22:50political trap, because now it's too late to
00:22:54go back and try to make a legislative agreement that was
00:22:57rejected. On the other hand, a good part
00:23:01of the reforms that are worthy of that name, which are reforms and which
00:23:04need popular support and which need parliamentary support,
00:23:08probably don't have it, he's making an appeal for them to reach an agreement, I think
00:23:12so, because remember the responsibility is not only the PSD's, it's because the country is not
00:23:16governable, the responsibility here also has to be
00:23:18Chega's and the... and the Liberal Initiative's, what is your opinion about
00:23:22André Ventura? Do you know him well? I know enough to think that he is a
00:23:26person, eh, who has a lot of merit or he wouldn't have
00:23:30created a party with the expression that it has today, and that
00:23:34he is a politician who has shown a remarkable
00:23:37power of initiative, praises that
00:23:40reinforce the appeal for a majority that gives the government conditions to
00:23:44move forward, criticizes the pace of changes and makes
00:23:47comparisons. the PS, there is no doubt, has a government
00:23:51program that has some transformative ambition, but
00:23:55that transformative ambition has been slow to
00:23:58go from the government program to government actions and
00:24:01to the reality of the country, today, for example, I think the
00:24:05state no longer has the authority to
00:24:08rehabilitate the national health service as it needed to be rehabilitated, I saw
00:24:12nothing change during the nine years of the socialist party in government,
00:24:16on the contrary, there was degradation of public policy, I see nothing after two years.
00:24:34evaluations about a position he says he does not
00:24:37desire.
00:24:40André Ventura interviewed this Monday on RTP, an interview
00:24:44conducted by journalist Vítor Gonçalves in the news at
00:24:47night on RTP Notícias. The first of a
00:24:51series of interviews with party leaders throughout
00:24:54the week. The Prime Minister calls for an end to the
00:24:58conjuncture that has led to the folly of rising oil
00:25:01prices. In São João da Madeira, Luís Montenegro criticized those who
00:25:04want to import instabilities into
00:25:06the country.
00:25:10It is the end of a particularly intense week. The government delivered the
00:25:13budget, the Prime Minister received the US Secretary of State
00:25:17Marco Rubio. In São João da Madeira. He wanted to share that
00:25:21among the topics of conversation was the escalation of fuel
00:25:24prices, we must resolve in the coming weeks,
00:25:27in the coming times this, eh,
00:25:30folly of penalizing economies and
00:25:34people in general where no one is taking advantage
00:25:38and and and resolving this
00:25:41impasse, I take this opportunity to be in one of the municipalities that
00:25:45export the most to return to the budget and the defense of the decision to
00:25:48lower corporate tax to 18%.
00:25:52There's no point in demagoguery about that, and some
00:25:56say that
00:25:58when we lower corporate tax, when we lower
00:26:02taxes on companies, we want to give
00:26:05more money to entrepreneurs, to
00:26:08entrepreneurs, to those who are the most
00:26:12advantaged in society, that is a very,
00:26:15very limited view of public
00:26:18policies. He recognizes that the political moment is difficult
00:26:22and blames the international context, but says that the country has guaranteed
00:26:26economic and financial stability. some want to
00:26:30bring instabilities, even from a social point of view. into the country, they will not
00:26:33achieve that objective either, which is a
00:26:37negative objective, one thing is to talk about the problems, another thing
00:26:40is to want to import instabilities that have no place here. The
00:26:44Prime Minister does not let go of the image of a growing economy,
00:26:48says he knows that day by day it is more difficult for Portuguese people,
00:26:52but asks not to
00:26:54falter.
00:26:57The PS requested an urgent parliamentary hearing with 16
00:27:00entities representing economic and social sectors affected by the
00:27:04increase in energy costs, the party
00:27:07intends a diagnosis of the different realities and impacts
00:27:11to be able to identify eventual measures. In the request sent
00:27:14to the parliamentary committee on environment and energy, the PS explains that
00:27:18these impacts are not distributed homogeneously among the different
00:27:22sectors, and therefore wants to hear in parliament the business confederation.
00:27:25the Confederation of
00:27:27Farmers.
00:27:31The Finance Minister says it would be inexplicable to return
00:27:34to a budget deficit, if the IPS approve
00:27:38measures in the budget, he responds to the accounts of Mário
00:27:41Centeno, who speaks of incompetence in the management of public
00:27:45accounts. It is not unheard of,
00:27:49minister and former minister disagree on the accounts, one
00:27:52pulled the country out of chronic deficits and accuses the current one of leading
00:27:56it back into negative territory, the budget
00:27:59presented and initially approved.
00:28:02Miranda Sarmento devalues Centeno's calculations, who
00:28:06says he was hasty. And
00:28:08it would be inexplicable, and I repeat, irresponsible, after a very
00:28:12difficult year 26 and it was possible
00:28:15to maintain the balance of public accounts, even against many, against many
00:28:19forecasts and predictions that now in 2027 due to negative
00:28:23coalitions of the PS and Chega, the country would be thrown into a budget
00:28:26deficit. This is not about the devil, these are pure and simple errors,
00:28:30they are errors in policy management. there is no devil here, it is
00:28:34just incompetence in a way in the way budgets
00:28:38are then executed, we can
00:28:42after such a deviation have some
00:28:45credibility in relation to what was presented to us for the 2027
00:28:48account, I have doubts because I don't know
00:28:52exactly where public spending will
00:28:55stop, I think it was a bit hasty, there is no
00:28:59problem in net spending, nor any problem. in the control
00:29:03account and whoever presents other values has to
00:29:06explain where these values come from, the current finance minister does not directly
00:29:10mention the former governor of the Bank of Portugal, whose
00:29:13forecasts, when he still held the position, never went down well with
00:29:17the current government. Now, without institutional
00:29:20restraints, Centeno does not hold back on criticism and
00:29:23questioned, once again, about a possible return to
00:29:26politics, he sees no point in saying
00:29:29never. Never is zero. zero
00:29:33is the absorbing element of multiplication, zero
00:29:36ends everything that is our learning, when
00:29:40we establish a zero in our lives, we
00:29:44don't get out of there and that's why
00:29:47never makes no sense to me, which doesn't
00:29:50mean it's probable or easy,
00:29:54which also doesn't mean it's completely out of
00:29:58the question.
00:30:01dozens of people... camped in Praça Dom João
00:30:04I in Porto decided to continue Saturday's protest against the
00:30:08rising cost of living and housing, an RTP team
00:30:12accompanied the protest tonight with tents in Porto that
00:30:15are expected to remain for the next few days.
00:30:17And
00:30:21there are dozens of tents spread across
00:30:24this square here in Porto, as night
00:30:28falls, some people are already
00:30:32going inside these tents. They are here in protest,
00:30:35they are appealing for a response to the rising
00:30:39cost of living, also to the high prices, the high
00:30:42prices of housing, and one of the people here is João, good evening
00:30:46João, are you staying here? Yes, exactly, we just
00:30:50decided in assembly, we're staying here another night, we're staying here
00:30:53until the new rental law is actually
00:30:57reversed, the new rental law, and this is an
00:31:00extension of the demonstration that... since yesterday, all over the country,
00:31:04do you also know if this desire and this decision happen in other
00:31:08cities? Yes, at this moment, we have information that the
00:31:11encampment only happens here in Porto, but we know that the feeling is the same in all cities
00:31:15and we appeal for all these
00:31:18escalations of these ramifications
00:31:22to also be shown in other cities because we know that discontent exists and therefore
00:31:26we appeal for people to take to the streets, an example here that we are trying
00:31:29to repeat is what happened in Madrid as well,
00:31:32these encampments also
00:31:35saw this strong protest hoping and even getting
00:31:39responses from the government yes, exactly, that is,
00:31:43we are doing as we did in Spain. However, it's not simply to
00:31:46copy, that is, in Portugal, the conditions are even worse
00:31:50than in Spain, considering the new rental law, or as we
00:31:53usually call it, the eviction law and in that sense, it is in that sense that
00:31:57we appeal for all trade unions, independent
00:32:00unions, movements and parties to join us here in an
00:32:04open assembly on Tuesday to discuss the next steps of the movement, because in fact
00:32:07we need some victories, for now it has already been decided that they will stay another
00:32:11night, but future protests.
00:32:15demonstrations, do you intend to stay here longer
00:32:18or is that not an option? Yes, we intend to stay here longer, we call on everyone
00:32:22to bring their things, to come with tents, with food, with water, all
00:32:26supplies are welcome, because in fact we need to fight against
00:32:30this new housing crisis that government after government continues and
00:32:34worsens, in that sense, as I was saying,
00:32:37we appeal for all trade unions, parties, movements
00:32:41to join us here in Praça Dom João I to have an open assembly
00:32:44for... the future of the housing movement, thank you João, and this
00:32:47is the feeling and desire of those who are
00:32:51camped here in the square in
00:32:53Porto, Praça Dom João I and they hope to be
00:32:57heard further away in Lisbon where the
00:33:00government is, they hope that this request for answers
00:33:04will happen and that
00:33:08housing crisis, rising cost of living in
00:33:10Portugal.
00:33:13The UGT wants dignity. of salaries and pensions, the
00:33:16criticisms of the state budget proposal were heard this weekend
00:33:19at the congress where the social
00:33:23bodies took office.
00:33:25It is the last time that Lucinda Damas presides over the UGT
00:33:28congress. And it was this relationship of trust, of
00:33:32companionship and above all loyalty, that made
00:33:35these 13 years for me, perhaps the best 13 years
00:33:39of my life and I'm not lying. The succession was not consensual at
00:33:42first, after Francisco Pimentel's name
00:33:45did not gather enough support, it was Rosa Sousa, union leader and former
00:33:49mayor, chosen for the presidency, who arrives with criticisms
00:33:52of the government and promises to keep salary increases among the
00:33:56priorities. Coming from public administration, I understand
00:33:59that having
00:34:0240 cents per kilometer at the price of gasoline
00:34:05is paying to work. We have had difficult negotiations
00:34:08in public administration many times, but we have
00:34:11always found a common ground and that will be our
00:34:15logic. In the executive leadership, there is no change. Mário Mourão was re-elected
00:34:19secretary-general and begins a second term, he warns that the dignity
00:34:23of salaries and pensions cannot wait and challenged the government
00:34:27again and social
00:34:30in what he calls a minimum budget. We do not
00:34:34solve problems by occasionally
00:34:37attributing a subsidy or
00:34:41a pension, an extraordinary
00:34:44amount. because we are postponing people's problems,
00:34:48there is no sensitivity from the government to
00:34:51know that if one year it was necessary to reinforce the minimum
00:34:55wage, it was this one that the government
00:34:58continues to be insensitive to this challenge and this appeal.
00:35:02The demands that marked the congress also echoed outside the venue, the
00:35:06bankers protested against the proposed 2% salary
00:35:08increase. They held 5 minutes of silence to mark the
00:35:12lost purchasing power. The increases in... the food basket or
00:35:16what are fuel prices, the value of rents is not with
00:35:20a 2% increase, we consider it a fair value to
00:35:23restore that purchasing power, we feel that we are falling behind, because it is a
00:35:27sector that cannot complain about productivity, naturally, the
00:35:30unions promise to continue to pressure the banks in the coming weeks, the
00:35:34protest culminates on November 30 with a national
00:35:36strike,
00:35:55debate a popular petition for a possible return to the European
00:35:59Union. More than 112,000 subscribers
00:36:02argue that Brexit is not working. The parliamentary
00:36:06debate is scheduled for this Monday in the historic
00:36:09hall of Parliament. The British Prime Minister stated that the
00:36:13government will analyze all options, the Office for
00:36:16Budget Responsibility emphasizes that, due to Brexit,
00:36:20the UK's economy and trade have weakened,
00:36:23a situation that may worsen.
00:36:28At least 139 people died, including 15
00:36:32children, in the shipwreck of a vessel heading for
00:36:36Yemen, with 84
00:36:38missing.
00:36:42This is what remains of another tragedy at sea. They fled
00:36:46insecurity and poverty on a boat trip that did not reach its
00:36:50end. On Friday morning, 305
00:36:53people left Djibouti and did not reach their destination,
00:36:57Yemen.
00:37:23and the families who lost loved ones or remain without news of their relatives.
00:37:28According to United Nations accounts, in 2025, there were more than
00:37:31900 migrants reported dead or missing on the eastern
00:37:35route, which connects the Horn of Africa and Djibouti to
00:37:39Yemen.
00:37:42In the United States, Hurricane Isaias caused
00:37:46four deaths and damaged roads and buildings.
00:37:4945 thousand people are still without
00:37:52power.
00:38:58but all of our freezers are all bolt locked shut so i
00:39:01really there again if open it lose about 10 degrees every time open it
00:39:05but recent data reveals that 45 people

00:39:16exact date or time but we're just working around the clock to restore it
00:39:20and doing our best and our fastest work we can do to get everybody's power back
00:39:23on just stay away from it and call it in and we'll be up there.
00:39:30A state of emergency was declared in Florida, Alabama and
00:39:33Georgia, which will receive the necessary resources and
00:39:36support to the affected areas. The
00:39:40situation is calmer, yet heavy rain is expected to continue
00:39:43to affect the country. The authorities warn of
00:39:47possible flash floods and
00:39:49floods.
00:39:5636, we recall. Now the topics that are marking the
00:39:59news.
00:40:01Donald Trump announced a ceasefire on energy infrastructure
00:40:05between Ukraine and Russia to begin immediately, but
00:40:08Zelensky guarantees he knows nothing. Tonight, the Ukrainian
00:40:12president stated that after this announcement, Russia again
00:40:15attacked energy facilities in Ukrainian
00:40:18territory.
00:40:21Yemen's Houthis have already claimed responsibility for attacks against
00:40:24Riyadh International Airport and Saudi energy
00:40:28facilities. The airport was again attacked this Sunday, in just
00:40:31one week, it is the third time this airport has been
00:40:34hit.
00:40:37The Pope has a nodule in his lung, he will be operated on
00:40:40in the coming days. The announcement was made by himself at
00:40:44the end of the Angelus prayer in the
00:40:46Vatican.
00:40:49More than 45,000 people demonstrated this Sunday in
00:40:52Brussels against the lack of climate
00:40:56creation of... taxes for fossil
00:40:59fuel companies and a just climate
00:41:03transition.
00:41:06The prime minister appeals for an end to the situation that has led to the senseless rise in
00:41:10oil prices, in São João da Madeira, Luís Montenegro criticized
00:41:14those who want to import instability into the
00:41:16country.
00:41:19Pedro Passos Coelho admitted that he is considering returning to
00:41:23politics if the country needs him, if the PSD
00:41:26is not well successful. In an interview tonight
00:41:29with Sic Notícias, the former prime minister considered that the
00:41:34an agreement with Chega and the Liberal
00:41:37Initiative.
00:41:42The Algarve is on the drug traffickers' route, it is a point of
00:41:46supply for speedboats, but also the
00:41:49entry point for drugs into Europe. There are networks that
00:41:52rent houses on the Algarve coast to monitor police movements.
00:41:56It's not new, but it's gaining
00:41:59more and more strength in Portugal. The Algarve coast
00:42:02is part of the transit route for logistical support to drug
00:42:06trafficking networks. they are passing, let's say, here off the
00:42:10Algarve, maritime routes and that also implies that
00:42:14on land there is logistical support, namely fuel to
00:42:17supply the boats, in addition to this logistical fuel support there are others, there are other supports
00:42:20that are also established on land, there are large drug trafficking
00:42:24networks, namely originating in Spain. The positioning of the
00:42:27Algarve in Europe is the factor that most attracts
00:42:31drug traffickers. The Algarve and Portugal have a strategic position in Europe,
00:42:34therefore, it is here, if we look at Portugal, it is a
00:42:38tip of Europe, a gateway to Europe, eh,
00:42:41therefore, we have a privileged situation, a privileged
00:42:45location in relation to Europe and with the
00:42:48correlation with the Atlantic, along the Vicentine coast, both the
00:42:51maritime police and the GNR have detected some networks
00:42:55that rent local
00:42:58accommodation for this type of activity. These cases extend throughout the
00:43:02Algarve. The populations are increasingly attentive and
00:43:06concerned. This is the case of... residents on Farol Island in
00:43:09Faro, who suspect the illicit use
00:43:12of this old building. The authorities acknowledge the
00:43:16potential interest of the property, but rule out for now that
00:43:20recent, clandestine occupations are
00:43:23linked to drug trafficking. Even so, it is recognized that the
00:43:26identified networks are becoming increasingly
00:43:30dangerous. There has been a very important transformation
00:43:33here, which was the transition from hashish trafficking to cocaine trafficking, the
00:43:37amounts are substantially higher.
00:43:4020 or 25 times higher than they were a few
00:43:43years ago and the frequency of many Spanish vehicles has already been caught, war weapons
00:43:47also seized, war weapons seized
00:43:51near situations that indicated
00:43:54unloading. In recent times, the pace of
00:43:57seizures has increased to almost every
00:44:01week.
00:44:02204
00:44:05apartments for affordable rent are yet to be built
00:44:08in the municipality of Matosinhos since 2023. The
00:44:11municipality provided the land, but the Institute of Housing
00:44:15and Urban Rehabilitation did not proceed with the development. The
00:44:18president of the Institute says that the PRR financing
00:44:22failed, but guarantees, without giving dates, that the project will
00:44:25be carried out with funds from the European Investment Bank. of
00:44:29investment.
00:44:33There are three plots of land next to the Picultos Park in
00:44:36Matosinhos and they have an area of 8,170 square meters.
00:44:41In 2023, the studio of José Carvalho
00:44:44Araújo won the competition promoted by the Institute
00:44:48of Housing and Urban Rehabilitation to
00:44:51design the construction of 204
00:44:54apartments. We thought that it would be a
00:44:58quick, fast project, because it was included in the
00:45:01PRR and that didn't happen, we didn't even sign
00:45:04a contract. The Housing Institute planned to invest
00:45:0835 million and 200,000 euros. Participating
00:45:12in a competition of this dimension brings costs to the teams, it is a large
00:45:15multidisciplinary team, as
00:45:17important as that is for us to be aware that we have to be
00:45:21structured to respond to such a program, I am sure that it will not
00:45:25be possible to do
00:45:28these constructions at the price that was planned, I don't know
00:45:32if 30%, if double will be enough to
00:45:36complete this project. The land was ceded by the Matosinhos
00:45:39city council in 2023. This year,
00:45:43the municipality sent two letters to the president of the Housing
00:45:46Institute, to understand when the project
00:45:49would advance. Three years
00:45:53land to build more housing, because
00:45:56we continue to have a waiting list of about 100
00:45:59people. Neither does the Iru give us feedback regarding the
00:46:03deadline for awarding the project and the deadline for the
00:46:06construction of the housing. The investment did not advance because the
00:46:10state did not have money available at the time to proceed with that investment, when I arrived at the Iru we
00:46:14were dealing with an investment of I05 of the PRR of 774 million
00:46:17euros, it was the money that was allocated to housing above and this value was completely
00:46:21insufficient for the number of dwellings that were intended, of the two letters sent
00:46:25to the president of the Iru, he never replied saying that it was a question of
00:46:28financing, time is running out, the municipality of Matosinhos cannot be held
00:46:32hostage to a decision that is taking too long. The
00:46:35president of the Housing Institute guarantees that the
00:46:38financing amount has been reinforced and that the Matosinhos
00:46:42project will be implemented, but he does not
00:46:45commit to dates. The minister, the prime minister signed a
00:46:48BIM European Investment Bank financing of 1.340 million, which
00:46:52added 511 million euros from the state budget, for a total of
00:46:551851 million euros, which we are operating at the moment. In
00:46:59total, 12,000 new affordable housing
00:47:02units are planned nationwide.
00:54:5112, it's time to look at the newspaper covers that will
00:54:54be on newsstands, and we start with Diário de
00:54:58Notícias, prominently featuring a photograph of Donald Trump, war in
00:55:01Ukraine with the American president announcing
00:55:05an energy ceasefire. Zelensky didn't know, but he is willing
00:55:09to accept. In the headline, more than 8000
00:55:12teachers to be placed, but there are no teachers in
00:55:15schools. On the railway. High speed
00:55:18starts this
00:55:19Monday.
00:55:23Moving on to the newspapers, now to the cover of Público, which also brings at the
00:55:26top this announcement by Donald
00:55:30Trump. Ukraine, Zelensky promises to organize
00:55:33elections in exchange for... a 60-day ceasefire. Trump says
00:55:37he has guarantees from Moscow, but Putin remains
00:55:40silent. In the headline, about 40% of the municipalities
00:55:44without an absolute majority have agreements with the
00:55:47opposition. One year after the elections, the mayors are asking for
00:55:51changes in the electoral law to have more
00:55:54stability. In Público's photograph,
00:55:58an image of Rui Pinto, an investigation into how the PJ
00:56:01helped discover the identity of the hacker.
00:56:05Still weapons, the company has 90
00:56:08days to deliver tasers to the PSP and
00:56:12the GNR. In Porto, a news item we already
00:56:15reported in this newspaper, "Set up your tent, fight
00:56:18for housing" continues
00:56:32government foresees a loss of 2 billion. If the
00:56:36economy worsens, the rise in interest rates could destroy the
