PSD and CDS request hearing of Nuno Melo in the Assembly of the Republic
The parties supporting the government are asking Nuno Melo to explain in Parliament issues related to the purchase of frigates.

PSD and CDS-PP have requested a hearing of Deputy Nuno Melo in the Assembly of the Republic. This request arises in the context of questions raised about the acquisition of three Italian frigates, valued at 3.9 billion euros.
The parties supporting the current government want Nuno Melo, in his capacity as the responsible minister, to clarify the allegations related to the purchase of the vessels. In particular, concerns focus on the alleged exclusion of the Portuguese company NTG from the project.
According to the information, PSD and CDS-PP expressed concerns about the selection and contracting processes involved in this acquisition. The context and implications of the purchase have generated significant debates within Parliament.

The requests for the hearing aim to ensure transparency and accountability in this process. The parties believe that a direct clarification from Nuno Melo will help elucidate the positions and decisions made regarding this operation.
This request for a hearing may be debated in the upcoming legislative sessions, where it is expected that other parties will also express their views on the matter.
