Portuguese president dissolves parliament, calls for elections in June

Portuguese president dissolves parliament, calls for elections in June

31 March 2011 23:54 (UTC +04:00)

According to President Cavaco Silva, "In the current parliamentary framework it was not possible to generate a government solution that could run the country’s affairs. I have taken this decision having in mind the difficulties of the minority government to approve the necessary measures to face the country’s problems. There is also a lack of confidence between the political parties."

Although the parliament decision was a week ago, the president only could announce his decision Thursday because of the legal formalities. He had to call for a State Council meeting a mandatory presidential advisory board before publishing his decision.
