Rui de Carvalho de Araújo Moreira (born 8 August 1956) is a Portuguese businessman and politician, currently serving as Mayor of Porto since 2013. While officially an independent, he has been supported by the CDS – People's Party since 2013 and the Liberal Initiative since 2021.[1] He is also close and a supporter of the Democratic Alliance.[2]

Biography

Moreira was born in Porto. One of his great-grandfathers was Adolfo Höfle, a wealthy German migrant and employer of João Augusto Ferreira de Almeida, the last man executed by Portugal in 1917.[3] Moreira graduated in Business from London's University of Greenwich, top of his 1978 class.[4] A competitive sailor, he won youth and senior titles and represented Portugal in the sport.[5][6]

From 2001 to 2013, he was president of the Porto Commercial Association ('ACP'), which is headquartered in the magnificent and famous Palácio da Bolsa (Stock Exchange Palace).

From 2004, Moreira represented FC Porto on Trio d'Ataque, an RTP programme with pundits from the Big Three of Portuguese football. He was dismissed from the show in October 2010, after walking off stage during a discussion about the Apito Dourado corruption scandal at his club.[7]

In September 2013, running as an independent allied to the CDS – People's Party, he was elected mayor of Porto.[8] He was re-elected four years later, with an absolute majority.[9] In 2021, his list now including the Liberal Initiative won the elections but lost its majority, having six of 13 councillors.[10]
