At the end of what was the last voting day on the specialty of the State Budgets for 2021, BE’s proposal that cancels the transfer of 476 million euros from the Resolution Fund to Novo Banco is approved with the favorable votes of PSD, BE, PCP and PAN.
The text was thus possible, despite the votes against the PS, Chega and the Liberal Initiative.
The vice president of the Socialist caucus, João Paulo Correia, accused the Social Democrats of being accomplices in the breach of a contract signed between the Portuguese State and the US fund Lone Star, which Novo Banco bought.
“This proposal of the Bloco de Esquerda that was approved with the votes of the PSD represents the breach of a commitment assumed by the Portuguese State, the breach of a contract, and ends up being an atomic bomb on the confidence of the financial system“Correia pointed out at the end of the parliamentary vote.
“We know that This was done with total irresponsibility and cowardice on the part of the PSD, who at the end of the morning debate did not attend the Novo Banco debate, did not want to take his position (…), and now in the dead of night he joined his votes with the votes of the Left Bloc “.
João Paulo Correia also considered that the PSD has “an excessive thirst for power”. “He wants to come to power quickly. It breaks principles that are fundamental for the functioning of our economy and also for the credibility of the Portuguese State ”, he criticized.
“And we also consider that this position of the PSD, this irresponsibility of the PSD to unite its votes with the votes of the Left Bloc to prevent the Portuguese State from fulfilling a contract, will cause a reputational damage to the Republic, with repercussions on the interest of the public debt. ”.
The socialist also said I hope there is “some consideration” this Thursday morning., “What is the last opportunity for this proposal to be voted on again, so that what happened at dawn is reversed.
