I have never been in the situation of being tortured by the regime, but my family went through it not long ago under the dictatorship of the Estado Novo.

And we only achieved freedom due to the courageous actions of the Portuguese Army and its generals, who cornered the dictator without alternatives, and not a single bullet had to be fired. However, it was necessary to unite the army with the people to make this possible.

It was not with words that the problem was solved, but with concrete actions that left no alternatives for the regime. Only then was it possible.
