The president of the republic spoke to the communist general secretary between today and Thursday about his visit to Kiev, following the PCP’s objection to permission for Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa’s trip to Ukraine.
“The Secretary General of the PCP sent me a message, later I spoke to him, in which he explained the position of the PCP. That’s not a full no, but to say, “if it’s useful for the road to peacebuilding, then it makes sense,” the head of state said shortly after disembarking at the Kiev-Pasazhyrskyi railway station, in the Ukrainian capital. , for a two-day visit that included a meeting with Volodymyr Zelensky and participation in the summit on the recovery of Crimea — under Russian control since 2014.
Still, the president of the republic believed that there is “a consensus” among all parties on the importance of Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa’s journey to the country that has been trying to repel an invasion from Moscow for more than a year and a half.
On Tuesday, the president of the republic asked the People’s Assembly for permission to visit Ukraine this week.
The request was made from Warsaw, where the head of state was on an official visit and from where he left late Tuesday evening for Kiev.
