President Marcelo has sent a message of condolence and solidarity to his North American counterpart, Joe Biden, over the wildfire tragedy in Maui – in which a number of Portuguese descendants are still registered as ‘missing’. The current death toll of 93 is expected to rise as searches of the areas devastated by the inferno proceed. Meantime, survivors are already mounting lawsuits against the island’s energy provider, whose power lines have been blamed for the disaster.
