Portugal's caretaker government announced plans to expel approximately 18,000 foreigners living in the country without legal permits. Minister António Leitão Amaro stated that notifications will be issued to 4,500 undocumented migrants next week, urging them to leave voluntarily within 20 days. This decision is part of a broader review of the country's ineffective deportation system. The announcement comes ahead of early elections on May 18, called due to a loss of confidence in Prime Minister Luis Montenegro's minority government, which faced accusations of conflict of interest and was ultimately deposed by opposition parties.
