When Pedro Nuno Santos’ Facebook opens, the photograph that appears is that of an enthusiastic greeting to António Costa.

The complicity shown in the photograph is not the same as they have now.

If the pandemic seems to have given your home minister a break, trains and TAP are two stones in Pedro Nuno Santos’ shoes, since they are from sectors under pressure with this epidemic.
