Christmas Market promoter says protest could jeopardize jobs. Moedas holds police and MAI responsible if the protest remains in Rossio
The association managing the Rossio Christmas Market reports that the ongoing housing protest is damaging local commerce. The Mayor of Lisbon stated he does not wish to increase tension, but declared that if the protesters do not leave the square, the responsibility for enforcement falls to the police and the Minister of Internal Administration, rather than the City Council.
