Foreign politicians and intellectuals warn of political use of police by Jair Bolsonaro – News
Signed by Briton Jeremy Corbyn, former Labor Party leader, and Ken Livingston, former Mayor of London, and Americans by Noam Chomsky, linguist and philosopher, filmmaker Oliver Stone, former United Nations independent democracy expert Alfred de Zayasok, and Congressman Ilhamar Mark Weisbrot of the Center for Economic Policy Research in Washington, DC, in a letter warns of the political use of the PF in 2022, the year of the presidential election.
The text mentions the recent NF operation at the residence of former Governor Cear Ciro Gomes on December 15 and the arrest of former President Lula da Silva in 2018, both of which were identified as possible candidates for next year’s presidential election.
“This search and seizure operation [em casa de Ciro] signals a new and dangerous moment in the race for the Brazilian presidential election in October 2022. The federal police, under the direct control of President Bolsonaro, with factions still loyal to the former Judge Sergio Moro, the corrupt judge who arrested Lula in 2018 and is now also running for president – now it serves to intimidate Bolsonaro’s opponents in the elections, ” letter.
The drafting of the letter was organized by Federal MP David Miranda and was based on the idea of asking foreign politicians and intellectuals, “friends of Brazil and defenders of political freedom”, to intensify surveillance of Bolsonara so that the head of State does not use this provision to stop the opposition, since, according to him, this happened in 2018 with the arrest of Lula.
“Friends of Brazil around the world should express their concern about the impudent use of the federal police for political persecution. We call on everyone who cares about Brazil and the cause of political freedom in the world to redouble their vigilance against the use of government power to contain opposition to Bolsonar. Brazil has never needed us more, ”the letter says.
Jair Bolsonaro is under investigation for alleged interference with PF in favor of family members and political allies. This investigation is pending before the Brazilian Supreme Court (STF).
The investigation began in April 2020 after former Justice Minister Sergio Moro accused the head of state of unlawful pressure and interference with the federal police, prompting prosecutors to ask STF for permission to question Bolsonaro.
The investigation is trying to find out whether Bolsonaro pressured or tried to politically and illegally interfere with PF, the body responsible for investigating corruption against the president’s two sons: Senator Flavio Bolsonaro and Rio de Janeiro adviser Carlos Bolsonaro.

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.
For today on the calendar we will have an index of consumer confidence in the eurozone. Good luck and good luck in business!!

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).
