Agenda in Brazil
Cesário pointed out that another objective of his visit to Brazil, where he will also have an agenda in Santos, Rio de Janeiro, Juiz de Fora, and Belém do Pará, is also to deliver financial support approved by the Government to the community’s associative entities.
“We know [que esses apoios financeiros] are fundamental for the development of activities in the area of culture, in the area of social support, activities that also allow for a greater connection of our descendants to Portugal and Portuguese institutions”, said Cesário.
At the “Portas de Abril” event, a Portuguese party celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of the Carnation Revolution in São Paulo, the Secretary of State also valued the meetings with Portuguese communities in Brazil.
“I always have a personal objective, I have always said that I understand that Portuguese political leaders have to be close to the communities, close to their people, and I am here exactly to accompany the people, to demonstrate that we are with them, that we are already listen to them, so that we can better respond to their wishes”, he highlighted.
“My visit to this popular festival here in São Paulo, commemoration of the 25th of April, means exactly this, it is being with the Portuguese here in São Paulo, with this community, so that we can exactly listen to them and be able to respond better to their needs “, he concluded.
