Portugal's president helps save two women at sea

In the photo, the president was swimming toward women who had left the sea currents.

He later told reporters that the sea currents had drawn them away from the beach.

Rebello de Soussa is currently on vacation in the southern province of Algarve, thus promoting Portuguese tourism.

Portugal's economy is highly dependent on the tourism sector, which has been hit by the coronary pandemic.

The president spoke to reporters on the beach Praia do Alvor when he noticed women in distress.

It was filmed swimming toward them to help. They were arrived earlier by a man trying to turn the kayak, and a person on a ski came to their aid.
