Celebrating the Carnation Revolution's Golden Anniversary
The motion
That the Parliament congratulates Portugal on the 50th anniversary of the Carnation Revolution, which took place on 25 April 1974, bringing back democracy to a country that had been run by an authoritarian government since 1926; understands that this allowed many of those forced to leave the country for fear of political repression to return, and looks forward to working closely with Portugal once Scotland gains what it sees as its rightful place as an independent nation and re-joins the EU.
