Senators qualify the opening of the investigation as an attempt to intimidate
The CPI pandemic will send a habeas corpus to the Supreme Court to block an investigation launched this Wednesday (4) by the Federal Police to investigate the “leaked evidence” sent to the CPI.
As soon as during the meeting it became known about this measure, the senators reacted. Fabiano Contarato (Rede-ES), Randolph Rodriguez (Rede-AP), Renan Calheiros (MDB-AL) and Umberto Costa (PT-PE) classified the measure as an attempt at “intimidation” and accused the government of using the PF politically.
Senator Omar Aziz (PSD-AM) chairman of the college said CPI would take other appropriate action. “The leaks before we got these videos had been in the media for a long time, the press was already aware of this, and so far there has been no Federal Police initiative to investigate who is leaking from within the Federal Police. This chamber will be informed by the CPI of what is happening, we will not allow that, ”he said, also reminding that the CPI has the prerogative to decide what should or should not be confidential.
As chairman of the assembly, Randolph accepted Senator Fabiano Contarato’s (Rede-ES) proposal to file a habeas corpus to block the UF investigation.
<< It is a crime to prevent or attempt to prevent, by violence, threats or threats, the normal functioning of the parliamentary investigation committee or the free exercise of its powers. I am ordering the secretariat of this parliamentary committee of inquiry to notify the Senate attorney “to file habeas corpus immediately with the Federal Supreme Court to block the illegal and illegal investigation launched today by the Federal Police,” Randolph said, referring to Act 1579 of 1952.
CPI reporter Renan Calheiros said the current PF leadership supports a series of attempts to intimidate the work of the parliamentary commission of inquiry and against its members. Renan recalled that they were promoting “illegal accusation of the speaker.”
“I know the competence of the Federal Police. Everyone who tries to equip the PF ends up with donkeys in the water. They will not train this institution, ”Renan said.
Senator Humberto Costa (PT-PE) regretted the PF procedure. Randolph Rodriguez agreed and said that the Bolsonaro government is trying to turn the PF into a political police force.
Internet users
At one point in the testimony of retired colonel Marcelo Blanco, Senator Marcos Rogerio (DEM-RO) criticized Internet users’ access to CPI information and said the commission was “guided by fake Internet profiles.”
“Is this an episode of selective information leakage? CPI systems have been hacked! This is serious! This is serious, this is very serious! Or is there really a parallel digital cabinet helping the Rapporteur of this CPI – and most importantly! – Having access to confidential documents? The CPI is coordinated by fake profiles on the Internet, ”accuses Marcos Rogerio.
Omar Aziz (PSD-AM) reacted to Marcos Rogerio’s speech and said that the senator “wants to disqualify the CPI at any time in defense of an irresponsible and incompetent government.” And Renan Calheiros explained that Internet users have daily access to CPI documents, which are publicly available and posted on the Commission’s website.
Incomplete information
Earlier, Senator Rogerio Carvalho (PT-SE) accused the executive branch of discouraging the CPI by sending incomplete and insufficient information in response to inquiries. Citing a report from the Metrópoles news site, the congressman said the federal police had sent a statement from former Health Minister Eduardo Pasuello to the Commission of Inquiry, which did not mention President Jair Bolsonaro and MP Luis Miranda.
“This fact is extremely serious and could signal the use of Brazilian state institutions to support groups whose interests do not coincide with the goals of the country.”
In another case, Colonel Marcelo Blanco’s testimony was interrupted because Federal MP Reinhold Stephanes the Younger (PSD-PR) entered the room and, according to Randolph Rodriguez, recorded a video in which he insulted KPI members. After the congressman was removed, Randolph said the CPI would report the incident to House President Arthur Lear and, if possible, the Ethics Council.
“Today there have been repeated attempts to intimidate the KPI. We’ll find out the truth. This investigation will not be terminated, ”the senator said.
Yesterday, financial agents evaluated the opposite decision of the Federal Supreme Court (STF) regarding the so-called secret budget. In addition, a decision was made by STF Minister Gilmar Méndez to issue an injunction that would exclude the Bolsa Família from the spending cap rule, with investors trying to understand how this measure would affect the processing of the transitional PEC in the Chamber of Deputies. Oh this PEC!!!!
Since he is an exchange investor, any reading that the budget will be exceeded or become more flexible will negatively affect the exchange market, whether through the PEC or in any other way. We will continue with volatility today.
Looking beyond, the US Central Bank (Fed), although slowing down the pace of monetary tightening at its December meeting, issued a tougher-than-expected statement warning that its fight against inflation was not yet over, raising fears that rising US interest rates will push the world’s largest economy into recession.
The currency market continues to react to political news. The voting on the PEC is saved for today. It is expected that it will indeed be reviewed to open the way tomorrow for discussions on the 2023 budget.
Yesterday, the spot price closed the selling day at R$5.3103.
For today on the calendar we will have an index of consumer confidence in the eurozone. Good luck and good luck in business!!

BRUSSELS, DECEMBER 19 (ANSA). European Union countries reached a political agreement on Monday (19) to impose a natural gas price ceiling of 180 euros per megawatt hour (MWh). The main sources of income for Russia and the minimization of the use of energy as a weapon by the regime of Vladimir Putin.
The agreement was approved by a supermajority at a ministerial meeting of member states in Brussels, Belgium, after months of discussions about the best way to contain the rise in natural gas prices in the bloc caused by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. .
The value set by the countries is well below the proposal made by the European Commission, the EU’s executive body, in November: 275 EUR/MWh. However, the countries leading the cap campaign were in favor of an even lower limit, around 100 EUR/MWh.
Germany, always wary of price controls, voted in favor of 180 euros, while Austria and the Netherlands, also skeptical of the cap, abstained. Hungary, the most pro-Russian country in the EU, voted against.
The instrument will enter into force on 15 February, but only if natural gas prices on the Amsterdam Stock Exchange exceed 180 euros/MWh for three consecutive days. In addition, the difference compared to a number of global benchmarks should be more than 35 euros.
Italy, the EU’s biggest supporter of the ceiling, has claimed responsibility for the measure. “This is a victory for Italy, which believed and worked for us to reach this agreement,” Environment and Energy Minister Gilberto Picetto tweeted.
“This is a victory for Italian and European citizens who demand energy security,” he added.
Currently, the gas price in Amsterdam is around 110 EUR/MWh, which is already a reflection of the agreement in Brussels – in August the figure even broke the barrier of 340 EUR/MWh.
However, Russia has already threatened to stop exports to countries that adhere to the ceiling. (ANSA).
