Transparência conclui que deputado do PS insultou e ofendeu Rui Paulo Sousa, do Chega

The Transparency Commission concluded that PS deputy José Carlos Barbosa insulted Chega deputy Rui Paulo Sousa, calling him "racist" and "fraudulent". This was in response to Sousa's criticism of Barbosa's social media post about a train trip through Russia. The commission's report emphasized that such language undermines the dignity of the Assembly of the Republic. Barbosa's comments were deemed a serious violation of parliamentary duties. Additionally, Barbosa has filed a complaint against Sousa for allegedly spreading false information and xenophobic statements on social media. The situation highlights ongoing tensions between the two deputies.
