In the wake of the tragic acts of terror unfolding across Europe, Portugal extends its deepest condolences to the victims and their families. We stand in solidarity with our European neighbors & our Canadian Friends, during these challenging times.

It is a collective responsibility for all nations to unite against extremism and work together, cooperating to ensure the safety and well-being of all our citizens. Portugal reaffirms its commitment to providing assistance and support to those affected by these deplorable and senseless acts. May this dark period serve as a catalyst for renewed determination in Europe & the World, to address the root causes of terrorism and strengthen our collaborative efforts to uphold the values of peace and unity.​

| Press Statement by the President, regarding the conflict between Canada and France.

In response to the recent events between the Kingdom of Canada and the Empire of France, Portugal is currently adopting a cautious and observant position. Our evaluation of the situation is ongoing, with a particular focus on obtaining more comprehensive information, especially concerning any potential interference by France in the internal affairs of Canada. This development emphasizes the necessity for robust international cooperation and intervention mechanisms to prevent and manage conflicts effectively. The ongoing situation in Europe underscores the importance of early intervention and collaborative engagement within the international community.

Portugal encourages all involved parties to prioritize diplomatic dialogue and adhere to established principles of international peace. We express our hope for a prompt and peaceful resolution that ensures stability and cooperation among the concerned nations. Portugal believes that the Global Assembly could play a crucial role in mediating this conflict, providing a platform for diplomatic negotiations without resorting to the use of weapons of war. Such an approach aligns with our collective commitment to global peace and stability.

In the spirit of fostering cooperation, Portugal stands ready to engage with the international community to explore avenues for mediation and conflict resolution. We believe that diplomatic channels should be exhaustively explored, and we are committed to working collaboratively towards a peaceful and sustainable resolution.​
