Portugal moved towards a political crisis on the 4 February 2010 as its finance minister appealed to opposition parties not to defeat the minority Socialist government over a regional finance bill that he said would undermine the country’s international credibility. However, on the 5 February 2010 the opposition parties pushed through the bill. Portuguese Finance Minister Fernando Teixeira dos Santos said the passing of the regional finance bill sent a bad signal, and said he would try to stop it being implemented. |
