IL considers the statements of the president of IHRU unfortunate

The leader of the Liberal Initiative, Mário Amorim Lopes, criticized the statements made by IHRU president Benjamim Pereira regarding societal sacrifices for housing. Lopes emphasized that political efforts should prevent future generations from needing to emigrate for housing. He stated that the issues within IHRU are longstanding and not solely due to Pereira's leadership. Lopes highlighted the need for action on degraded social housing and the potential of unused state properties for affordable housing. Pereira later acknowledged his comments were unfortunate and clarified he did not intend to downplay housing difficulties or suggest emigration.
