Santos was responding to a question related to the alleged rape of an Italian tourist in Lisbon's Martim Moniz area. He reiterated that the focus should be on the crime itself, not the background of the perpetrator. He stressed the importance of minimizing crime rates and ensuring public safety, stating, “It is essential that we reduce crime to the minimum levels that are possible.”
He further highlighted that under the Socialist government, there has been a notable increase in security, with a reduction in violent crime and an enhanced sense of safety among citizens. Santos concluded by asserting the need to maintain these improvements in public safety for the future.
