Foreign Minister Mauro Vieira said that the government of President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva cannot allow Brazilians deported from the United States to suffer similar treatment to the flight last Friday, 24. According to him, the plane could have suffered “more serious problems.” According to the Minister of Human Rights, Macaé Evaristo, federal management will install a humanitarian host post at Confins Airport in Minas Gerais, with a view to the arrival of new repatriaries.
The statements took place on Tuesday, 28, after meeting at the Planalto Palace with President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva. In addition to several ministers, the Air Force Commander, Air Lieutenant Brigadier Marcelo Damasceno, and Federal Police Director Andrei Rodrigues were also attended. According to Mauro Vieira, the agenda was information to the Chief Executive on the flight with the repatriads.
“The purpose of the meeting, in addition to transmitting to the president what happened, the report of the situation, was also to discuss ways to treat the issue from now on and to discuss with the American authorities that deportations for them are made meeting the requirements Minimal dignity, respect for human rights, attention necessary for passengers of a trip of this extension, ”he told reporters.

Vieira said last week’s operation was “tragic” by the defect that presented the aircraft and commented that she could have caused an accident. “Precisely makes us work now with the American authorities, to seek ways to make new repatriations, in accordance with Brazilian law and also with safety and welcoming standards within an aircraft,” he said. “We cannot admit that people come with that type of treatment, including taking higher risks, because the plane could have suffered accidents and more serious problems.”
The minister said, however, that the country does not yet know about more flights with repatriad Brazilians. “Flights have been a little more than one a month, we have nothing right now.”
According to him, the Brazilian government will attend the meeting convened by Celac to deal with the episode. The minister, however, avoided nailing if Lula will participate in the meeting. According to Vieira, management participation can be virtual: “We are defining how it will be.”
