Pressure on Montevideo increasing to make Portuguese second official language

     
The pressure on the government in Montevideo is increasing to make Portuguese the second official language of Uruguay.

In Uruguay live about 100.000 Portuguese-speakers. Many of them settled in Uruguay when it was still part of Brazil, the rest migrated from Brazil over the past decades to work mainly in Montevideo.
       
It is overdue for the former Brazilian province to recognize its roots and make Portuguese, next to Spanish, an official language in Uruguay.
