Gaucho SDP launches action to promote women's participation

Increasing the number of women candidates requires institutional incentives from increasingly influential parties. In the last elections in 2020, Porto Alegre secured the first place among the capitals, with the largest representation of women in the city council, with 30.55% of the parliamentary quorum represented by 11 councilors, for a total of 36 seats.

“Talking to leaders, inviting them to join and participate in party affairs on a daily basis are the first steps for future candidates,” says Leticia Vargas, president of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) in Rio Grande do Sul, in front. launching “PSD Mulher Conecta”, a project that promotes action to strengthen the feminine core of the acronym and arouses the interest of future affiliates.

“Women in politics have a duty to encourage other women,” says the party leader. In the last elections, 37% of the women candidates in the state had the acronym, which exceeds the minimum required by the electoral law (no. 9504/1997), which is 30%. “Having a candidate committed to the proposal and actually active in the party is a real promotion of equality. Often parties force people to enter into disputes without interest just to fulfill the quota, ”he explains.

The initiative’s first event will be broadcast live next Tuesday via the party’s digital platforms with former Sao Paulo Mayor Alda Marco António. “The first guest is one of the strongest party leaders in the fight against the murder of women and the equal participation of men and women in politics,” emphasizes Leticia.

There are also two more concerts on the schedule until November, the launch of an explanatory e-book for those interested in politics, and even a face-to-face meeting that brings together the women’s group participating in the program, subject to sanitary conditions. attentive to the leader of the broken.

“The political environment is very masculine, and it is very difficult for women to gain access to leadership positions in parties,” she says. Without a legitimate effort to attract and keep these people in the political arena, progress towards equality will not defeat the male majority scenario; therefore, this is a daily work of strengthening, the president emphasizes.

As for the future of the party in the next elections, the acronym leader ensures that it is time for a great dialogue so that definitions can be made before the end of the year. But in terms of advanced training, future candidates will be offered preparatory courses next year.

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!!

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).
