Lisbon Analysis Seesaw Between Cunhal Soares for A F M Rule
In Lisbon, the Armed Forces Movement governs Portugal with a two man civilian horizon. Alvaro Cunhal, the Communist boss, and Mario Soares, Socialist leader, vie for influence as the A F M leans toward Cunhal but Soares leads the strongest opposition. Soares portrays the A F M as democratic and near democracy, while Cunhal warns Portugal is not under a dictatorship but a large coalition under an enterprising military. Both bear prison and exile in their pasts and clash over multiparty freedoms and foreign ties such as NATO.
