The draft resolution proposed by the current , the majority of , renews criticism of the leadership of the president of , , who is called in the text a “servant of the financial system”.
The document, which is being discussed at this Saturday’s meeting (7) of the party’s National Directorate in Brasília, lists a series of economic indicators of the Lula (PT) government, including the reduction in unemployment, the new industrial policy and the resumption of civil construction.
The text, which can be changed, indicates that the “scenario is no longer promising due to the deliberate sabotage of Roberto Campos Neto’s Central Bank, which commands the authority with a political-partisan bias.”
“He is a kind of servant of the financial system who works by inventing all kinds of false pretexts so that the (Copom) raises interest rates, to the benefit of bankers, and inhibits economic activity”, he writes.
The draft says that, with the basic rate at 11.25% and the pressure for an increase of 0.75 percentage points at the meeting that ends this Wednesday (11), “the entire production chain runs the risk of going backwards in relation to to its excellent results over the last 10 months.”
The document also states that civil society needs to remain vigilant “and confront Faria Lima’s antics that aim to undermine economic and social achievements through speculation.”
Next, he mentions the announcement by Minister Fernando Haddad (Finance) of fiscal adjustment measures, which led the dollar to surpass R$6.
“The method is clear: the speculators acted after learning that the government’s tax measures included exemption from income tax for those earning up to R$5,000 a month”, he continues. “This is a clearly political maneuver to weaken the government and prevent it from continuing to advance on the path of development and social justice.”
