Elevator of Glory: Coin Adopts a "More Calm and Respectful" Approach towards Victims, According to Cristas
In an interview with SIC Noticias, Assunção Cristas, a jurist, university professor, and former city councillor of Lisbon, voiced her support for Carlos Moedas, the President of Lisbon's city council, in the aftermath of the tragic Elevador da Glória accident.
Cristas praised Moedas' swift response to the incident, noting that he was on the scene just a few minutes after the accident. She commended his serene and respectful manner towards the victims, stating that his commitment to finding a solution was evident in his statement, "I will not rest until everything is fully explained."
Regarding the political situation, Cristas considered it justified and clear. However, she emphasised the need for a technical-legal discussion about the blame and responsibilities of the accident. She also expressed surprise at the possibility of Moedas resigning, referring to his decision to step back from dismissals as a positive action.
Cristas believes that it is natural and positive for responsible parties to feel they should resign in such a case. She also considered it positive to give an indication that everyone together must find solutions. She, however, did not express an opinion on potential dismissals in the local government related to the accident.
The Elevador da Glória accident resulted in 16 deaths and over 20 injuries, a fact that was not explicitly stated in the previous bullet points. The interview was conducted by SIC on Sunday night.
It is worth noting that the interview did not discuss Cristas' opinion on the Elevador da Glória accident case being a cowardice or a natural and positive action. Nor did it refer to her comments as a positive action in the case. Additionally, the interview did not discuss the mayor stepping back from dismissals in the Elevador da Glória accident case.
