The deputy of the federal deputy to the Government’s Institutional Relations Secretariat () should accelerate the debate on the succession in the Workers Party and bring a mandate from the president to the election, scheduled for July.
With A, Gleisi is required to leave the PT presidency because the party’s statute prohibits participation in the party leadership of people in executive positions, which includes ministers.
There are three main quotes for the mandate buffer: Government leader José Guimarães (CE), Senator Humberto Costa (PE), who petista in 2024, and party treasurer Gleide Andrade.
Heard under reserve, a member of the National Directorate also indicated the minister of the General Secretariat of the Presidency, Márcio Macêdo, for the buffer mandate.
Macêdo is recurrently quoted in the ministerial reform bets to lose his position in the face of.
The name of Guimarães gains strength in a chess that involves reducing Congress resistance to Gleisi’s nomination for political articulation.
Both she and Lula have heard from allies that the ideal would be to invite to the position of government leadership a center deputy, such as Isnaldo Bulhões Jr. (MDB-AL) or Aguinaldo Ribeiro (PP-PB).
Currently the four positions linked directly to the articulation are held by petistas: Gleisi in institutional relations, Guimarães in the leadership of the government in the House (BA) in the leadership of the government in the and Randolfe Rodrigues (AP) in the leadership of the Government in Congress.
For the party’s effective presidency, today the strongest name is Lula’s candidate, former minister and former mayor of Araraquara Edinho Silva. Even though it is chosen from the party’s main leader, within the president’s own wing, the CNB (building a new Brazil).
Faced with Gleisi’s departure, another possibility, considered more remote, is to anticipate the election of the party’s command to avoid a four -month term. The choice is scheduled for July 6.
Petistas claim that discussions about the future of the PT start to be valid from now on. Despite the backstage dispute – and the CNB search for a name to face Edinho – part of the acronym evaluates that the outcome will be decided by Lula.
Gleisi had been defending a name from the Northeast to replace her in command of the PT. In government calculations, the articulation of alternatives EDINHO could be reduced with it out of office. A, however, last month.
Supporters of the former mayor of Araraquara had a sample of the malaise in early February, when the organization of a dinner with Edinho was criticized in the WhatsApp group of deputies that make up CNB, a majority chain. The meeting was canceled.
Guimarães himself was one of those who reacted to the invitation to meet with Edinho, calling the initiative hasty and a way to the internal division.
Guimarães also recalled that Gleisi’s expected appointment to the government had not even been formalized and it was not known who will replace it to lead the election. “We can’t run over the rites. Often those who walk fast eat raw,” he said.
With the ministerial reform, Gleisi was quoted for the position of Macêdo at the General Secretariat of the Presidency. In recent days, however, Lula has indicated to people close to the deputy in place of also petista Alexandre Padilha.
Padilha had been at the Secretariat of Institutional Relations since the beginning of the Lula administration, but it was in place of Nísia Trindade.
