Crown: Portugal seeks alternative blockade



[ad_1]

WWhile the second corona wave is slowly but surely building up in Europe, countries are feverishly searching for solutions on how to deal with the growing number of infections. For the Portuguese Prime Minister, António Costa, it is clear that there cannot be a second blockade in his country: “We cannot repeat the blockade that we had to impose during the state of emergency. Companies, families and individuals would not tolerate it, “he said recently. The Social Democrat, who has ruled the country for about five years, has spoken out repeatedly in recent weeks against a renewed shutdown of public life to stop the spread of the crown. And the Portuguese head of government remains firm in categorically rejecting the heavy restrictions even now, as the number of infections in Portugal is again increasing significantly. If the country abides by this demonstrative refusal, it could play a pioneering role in Europe, Portugal could then be the first EU country to take a third path and not allow a successful second blockade.
