...Communists, the Popular Democrats and the Socialists each retained two portfolios in the enlarged Cabinet, and the Democratic Movement was given one. But Socialist Leader Mario Scares was replaced as Foreign Minister by Major Ernesto Melo Antunes, who was Scares' chief assistant in negotiating the independence of Portugal's African territories of Mozambique and Angola. Antunes, a Marxist moderate, is not expected to make any significant changes in foreign policy, particularly with regard to Portugal's ties to NATO. Like Communist Secretary-General Alvaro Cunhal, Scares will remain as a minister without portfolio. That is a considerable...

Government ministers said that the new Cabinet, like the outgoing one, would be predominantly military with perhaps a larger representation of Communists, who formerly held two posts.

In between episodes he pontificates to her on the metaphysical nature of love and sensuality. It's soft-core scriptwriting like this that makes the hard stuff look at least honest. After he has taken Emmanuelle...
...Armed Forces Movement has vowed to guarantee that each political group will enjoy the right to freedom of assembly, a move that is generally approved by all factions. Said Foreign Minister (and head of the Socialist Party) Mario Scares last week: "We need the force of the M.F.A. to impose direction on the democratization of the country. There is great instability in Portugal, and it is necessary that we avoid it through the constitution." The constituent assembly's deliberations on the constitution are expected to last three months. Then a second election, either for a Parliament...
