Portuguese opposition parties called on the president on Wednesday to use his power to dissolve parliament over a growing scandal around state-owned airline TAP, although analysts see the majority Socialist government surviving - for now at least.
Infrastructure Minister Joao Galamba, who oversees TAP, submitted his resignation on Tuesday. But Prime Minister Antonio Costa decided to keep him in the job, snubbing President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa who had made clear he wanted Galamba out.
