Marcia Bassetto Paez was a history student at USP from 1976 until 1979, when she closed her enrollment but retained her connection to the university. He joined the Workers’ League, a Trotskyist organization founded in 1972, to organize politically and have more theoretical grounds for his militancy. On April 28, 1977, she and two other members of the organization, Celso Brambilla and José María de Almeida, planned to distribute pamphlets with slogans “against hunger” and “restoration of democratic freedoms” among factory workers at ABC Paulista, due to the Labor Day holiday, 1 May. However, at dawn, the three were approached and arrested by the military police. “We were brutally handcuffed and placed in a van ‘cage’ and then taken to the police station in Maua city,” says Marcia in volume 9 of the Final Report of the USP Truth Commission.

After passing through a police station, the three were taken to the State Department of Political and Social Order (Deops) building in central Sao Paulo, where they were arrested and tortured for several days. In her testimony to the commission, Marcia recounts the time she was escorted out of the building by two civilian police officers codenamed Ronnie Vaughn and Capeta. She was taken to a road outside the city limits and beaten by the police, who were interrupted by a voice over the car’s radio transmitter ordering the police to return “with live fish”. Returning to Deops, after ten days without contact with the outside world, Marcia and her companions underwent a course of treatment to cover up the signs of torture.

On June 16, Marcia was transferred to Karandiru Prison, where she remained until her pre-trial detention was released on July 21. On November 29, the charges were dismissed, and she, along with her associates, was acquitted.

The dollar continues to reflect the political scenario

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!!

The EU has reached a political agreement on limiting gas prices – 19.12.2022

Germany sentenced Russian to life imprisonment for political murder by order of Moscow - 12/15/2021
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).
