Party vice president is positioned against neutrality in next year’s election and highlights the need to create a viable alternative; Ronaldo Caiado is the most quoted in the caption
ACM Neto, who occupies the vice presidency of União Brasil, expressed in an interview with Globo his position that the party should give up the positions it has in and seek its own candidate for the elections of 2026. Despite keeping alliances at the state level with the PT, he criticizes the current administration, claiming that he does not meet the expectations of the population and faces challenges with the political class. Neto argues that permanence in positions in government makes no sense, since União Brasil will not be part of the PT coalition in the next elections. He positions himself against neutrality and defends the need to create a viable alternative. As for Lula’s support in some regions, Neto believes this should be a respected but not imposed choice.
The vice president of União Brasil also criticizes Lula’s understanding of his electorate, stating that the president was chosen by an audience who rejected him less than his predecessor, Bolsonaro. He emphasizes the importance of a candidacy that unites the forces of the center and the right, highlighting Bolsonaro’s political influence in this scenario. Neto suggests that Governor Ronaldo Caiado is the candidate of União Brasil to the presidency, although avoiding personalizing the discussion. He believes that the disagreements between Caiado and Bolsonaro will not be an obstacle to the dialogue and the construction of a strong candidacy.
Regarding amnesty for those convicted of the events of January 8, Neto expresses uncertainty about the backing of movements by the different powers. He mentions that Bolsonaro’s eligibility is an issue that must be decided by the Electoral Justice. In addition, Neto defends herself from investigations involving businessman José Marcos Moura, claiming to have no connection with the deviations being cleared.
