On a continent where borders are tightening, Portugal's President António José Seguro chose Luxembourg — home to nearly 90,000 Portuguese residents — to inaugurate Portugal Day abroad, using the occasion to argue that open societies are not weakened by those who arrive, but completed by them. Speaking before Luxembourg's Chamber of Deputies, he held up six decades of Portuguese integration as a living rebuttal to the politics of exclusion. The visit wove together diplomacy, economic partnership, and something quieter: the recognition of ordinary people who built their lives far from home.
