Great question. I don't believe it will affect anything to badly. Most countries deal with things like this from time to time. While there may be a short term drop in Tourism, it is only last until the next event happens in a neighboring country.

With that said, Portugal is listed as having medium amounts of risk when pertaining to Crime, Corruption, and Infrastructure (meaning government stability). This isn't to bad when you compare it to the US which has a medium risk of Crime and Terrorism. The source for this information comes from a group of ex-CIA intelligence officers who profile potential risk in different locations.

Again thank you for posting the question.
