The mayor, (-PB), complained to allies in the last days of.
In an interview on the 7th, Motta said the episode was an “unimaginable aggression,” but not that he didn’t see him as an attempt to coup.
According to reports collected by Sheetthe mayor stated at a lunch to a group of allies of varying parties, from PL to PT, that the people who criticized him forgot that, in the same interview, he denied the possibility of doing impeachment processes against the president (PT ) Advance.
Also according to lunch participants, Motta stressed that he has commitments “with both sides” and will not disturb the government at all, but has personal opinions about themes.
A deputy who was at the meeting says that the mayor stressed that plenary agenda decisions will be made collectively, listening to party leaders.
In addition, Motta would now intend to focus on a purposeful agenda in front of the house. The assessment is that it is necessary to seek a consensus agenda, which escapes from polarization issues. The signs of his part, according to allies, is that this is not the time to guide the controversial topics, such as the PL of Amnesty, which exempts from the sentence of those convicted by January 8.
As Sheet Showed, Bolsonarists started using Motta’s own statement to seek more support for the bill.
In addition, this group expanded the pressure, meeting Motta’s family of one of the January 8 prisoners. The meeting took place, but there was no image record. It was later discovered that the driver of truck sentenced to 14 years in prison, which was used as an example by these parliamentarians ,.
In the interview in which he talked about January 8, Motta stated that “what happened cannot be admitted to happen again.”
“Now I want to say it was a blow …” he added. “The blow must have a leader, there has to be a person encouraging, support from other interested institutions, such as the Armed Forces, and did not have it.”
About Lula impeachment requests submitted by opposition parliamentarians, he said he wants to be the “president of stability” and that Lula was legitimately elected.
“It is not generating more instability that we will solve the problem of the country. President Lula was legitimately elected by our people, is backed by these people to govern,” he said.
“Impeachment request of course analyzes, it has to see if it has the foundation, consistency, but it is also a political process of choice and it is not in our horizon to make any movement that brings to the country instability,” he added.
Motta entered the dispute for the succession of (PP-AL) officially in September 2024. He had less exposure time than the other candidates and made a campaign in which he explained little positions on legislative proposals.
The focus was to seek consensus guidelines and themes in which he could finish votes in the different ideological fields of the Chamber.
Allies of his in the house say that he, in fact, has the understanding that there was no attempt to blow on January 8, but that this does not necessarily translate into support for the Amnesty PL.
They also claim that Motta felt comfortable to express his positions because he was on local radio and would not have full understanding of the weight that today has his word.
Petist leaders have seen the statements as Motta’s nods to the Bolsonarist agenda, but evaluate that the president of the house will have in his administration, acting now for the government, sometimes for the opposition.
Still in the evaluation of these leaders, Motta.
Therefore, they say that there is no reason for crisis with the new commander of the house, although they consider it important to highlight that they disagree with the interpretation of attacks on the headquarters of the three powers.
