“They say there will be recession and Brazil will grow at most 2.5%. It will grow a little more than 2.5%, you can be sure,” he said
The President of the Republic, Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva (PT), said on Thursday, 27, in Santos (SP) that the country will grow this year “a little over 2.5%”, contrary to the governor of São Paulo, Tarcísio de Freitas (Republicans), who spoke in a meeting with mayors at the beginning of the month, which predicts up to 2% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
“They say there will be recession and Brazil will grow at most 2.5%. It will grow a little more than 2.5%, you can be sure. In 2024, we will grow 3.8%, ”said Lula, also referring to last year’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) numbers that will still be known in early March.
The statement was made alongside Tarcisio during a speech at the release ceremony.
“The only thing we don’t want to grow is an egg price and meat,” said the President of the Republic, who also defended his government policies, such as Bolsa Familia, and investments in education, such as her foot. “I want money by circulating in the worker’s hand,” he said. “Bolsa Familia is not a program to live a lifetime, we don’t want country of poor.”
Lula also announced that he will make a federal institute in Guarujá (SP). “What is necessary to do in each state and have money, let’s do,” he said.
