Overview of the Debate
During the latest debate aired on RTP3, Rui Tavares emphasized that there is "much more that unites us than what separates us". However, Inês Sousa Real of the PAN party aimed to highlight the differences between her party and Tavares' Livre party, particularly on issues concerning the environment and animal rights.
Key Differences
Sousa Real pointed out several areas of divergence, including:
- Green Economy: Tavares' party did not support certain proposals related to the green economy, childcare in companies, and tax brackets for the IRS.
- Animal Protection: She criticized the lack of an environmental agenda and claimed that animal rights have become a "isolated voice" under the Livre party.
Tavares countered by stating that he has stood alone for the cause of "hydrogen in Portugal", arguing that ecological causes are also social causes.
Common Ground
Despite the differences, both candidates agreed on several issues concerning:
- Housing: Proposals for a national housing service from Livre versus PAN's solutions.
- Health and Domestic Violence: They shared similar views on health care and measures against domestic violence.
- Euthanasia Law: Both lamented the rejection of certain euthanasia law provisions by the Constitutional Court.
Upcoming Debates
This was Tavares' last debate, while Sousa Real prepares for her next confrontation against Paulo Raimundo of the CDU, scheduled for tomorrow at 18:00 on CNN.
