PSD speaks of "effort by the authorities" for peaceful demobilization

The PSD's first reaction to recent events emphasizes the need for peaceful disarmament and acknowledges the authorities' efforts. Sebastião Bugalho stated that the police had to enforce the law, which was done within a legal and proportional framework. He agreed with José Luís Carneiro that force should be a last resort in a state governed by law, but also stressed the importance of maintaining the authority of security forces. The PSD rejects narratives that create divisions between police and those addressing housing crises, advocating for respect for both protesters' freedoms and the authority of security agents.
