Portugal’s President faces significant hurdles with the State Budget (OE) approval still uncertain, representing his most pressing challenge. The potential for conflict with right-wing parties looms as a constitutional review is anticipated. Recent praise for judge Abrantes is interpreted as a deliberate political signal, though its specific implications remain unclear. While the President expresses a sense of “tranquility” regarding the situation, the autumn is expected to be a critical period. The upcoming budget debate and constitutional deliberations are likely to dominate the political landscape. Securing budget approval will be crucial for maintaining stability, while the constitutional review could trigger considerable disagreement. These factors combined create a complex and potentially volatile political climate for the President.
