« At this moment who is still believes in the NATO? »
This Wednesday’s debate put Paulo Raimundo (PCP) and Rui Tavares (free).
About Defense and Nato
Wednesday’s debate began with the Livre leader to point out that for a « being free » Europe, it « has to be united »-different from saying that it needs to « spend on more weapons. »
Already about the born and questioned about the position of Livre about the importance of the Atlantic alliance, Rui Tavares questions: « At this moment who still believes in the born? »
Alternatively, Rui Tavares proposes « a European defense community that can be replaced to the born. »
In turn, Paulo Raimundo again makes it clear that the PCP « does not follow » the idea « that Europe needs to arm itself to the teeth. »
« Anyone who thinks that he will arm himself to the teeth and that the enemy will not do the same lives in a deep illusion, » he adds, adding that European invoice of 800 billion euros and goes to war, « will fall, as he always falls, over the peoples. »
In this sense, the PCP secretary general understands that Portugal should not invest more money “in a race for war”.
« We do not exchange money for the war for pensions, nor for salaries, for housing, health, day care centers or for homes, » he says.
