Portugal government agrees with far right to toughen nationality rules

LISBON: Portugal’s minority government on Tuesday secured an accord with a far-right party to propose a new law toughening the rules for foreigners to get Portuguese nationality, officials said. A first vote on the law was to be held in parliament later Tuesday following the accord with the far-right Chega party. The law will notably extend the time required to acquire Portuguese nationality, said Hugo Soares, head of the governing coalition in parliament.
