Portugal Outlaws Face Coverings
Portugal has approved a law banning the covering of the face in public places, aimed at promoting social integration and security, with exceptions related to health, professional, or religious situations. The law stipulates fines ranging from 150 to 3,000 euros for violators and seeks to prevent forcing individuals to hide their faces. It is based on principles declared by the European Court of Human Rights regarding the importance of revealing the face for communication and social trust. The law is considered a step toward strengthening the values of equality and dignity, especially for women, according to President António Guterres.
