- The right-wing populist party Chega made significant gains and is seen as a potential kingmaker.
- A grand coalition between PS and AD is unlikely, with Montenegro likely to rely on agreements with smaller parties.

Quick Glance: Portugal: Luis Montenegro Named New Prime Minister
- Portugal’s president has named Luis Montenegro, head of the centre-right Democratic Alliance (AD), as the country’s new prime minister and invited him to form a minority government.
- Montenegro, a 51-year-old lawyer and longtime parliamentarian, will succeed the Socialist Party’s Antonio Costa, who held office since 2015 and was forced to resign in November following corruption allegations.
- The AD alliance campaigned on promises to boost Portugal’s economy by cutting taxes after soaring inflation and living costs hit last year.
- The Chega party demanded involvement in the government formation, warning of instability if the AD continued to reject a coalition. Montenegro's party, however, plans to govern alone and only make piecemeal deals with other parties.
