Portugal in ″complicit silence″ faces a ″totalitarian″ regime in Guinea-Bissau
The president lamented Portugal’s “silly accomplice” to the violations of the rights of the people of Guinea-Bissau by the “totalitarian regime of IGêncioC”, which invests the head of state, which invests in mechanisms of repression”.
In an interview with the Lusa agency in Lisbon, Domingos Simões Pereira said that currently “the international community lacks leadership”, but above all he regretted Portugal’s position.
“For the silence that Portugal has with the European Union, with the United Nations and other organizations, in fact, or with other organizations, it is an accomplice, because it is not limited to being a silence, there have already been demonstrations of support, there have already been demonstrations of approximation without being substitutes for an attempt to understand reality”, said the leader of the African Party for the Independence of Guinea and Cape Verde (PAIGC, in opposition).
Domingos verões Pereira decided that this Guinean is very concerned” to help a Portuguese people as “has difficulties in understanding the signs” instead of “trying to silence the community” and support these peoples in situations”.
The PAIGC leader considers that the Guinean head of state wants totalitarian power and invests in means of repression of the people instead of guaranteeing them as their basic means.
“Right now, a strong investment in administrative control, therefore, the Guinean Government, not in schools, not in hospitals, there is no interest on the part of the Guinean people, but in the mechanisms of repression, in acquiring means for demonstrations, for intimidation of the people,” he said.
Simões Pereira, when installed to give examples of this repression, mentioned how people are beaten for any reason. “This entered the daily life of the Guinean citizen, the Guinean citizen today is beaten because, for example, he prayed on a day when he should not pray”.
The country’s leader himself has already been impeded several times, considering that the country’s government orders in this regard derive from the policies of the Guinean regime.
Domingos Simões Pereira further referred to the security, on the other hand, of the Government’s decisions such as, on the one hand, sending home about 1, the recruitment process was considered less transparent and, almost 10,000 recruitment agents as a parallel army”.
In this sense, he considered that “the perception that Umaro Sissoco has of power is totalitarianism”.
“For him democracy is: he gives orders and others execute them And when what is being attended to or seems to coincide with his interest and his orders, he thinks he has the right to call in the security forces and the Defense forces. to correct what he believes to be wrong”, he said, referring to the President.
Asked what weapons they need to use to fight this regime, he said that it is to continue “to alert the Guinean people” that their rights “are being called into question”.
“It is imperative at this moment that the people mobilize, that the people understand the importance of ensuring their fundamental rights and how their freedoms and all together we can really put an end to this attempt to suffocate society and the rights of the Guinean people”, defended.
