Batting with the middle finger of his right hand in the pulpit, the president () stated that “the far right will not win the elections in Brazil” next year, in a press interview on Saturday (7), in Paris.
“I’m telling you, looking well in your eyes,” he said, in response to a question from Sheet. “The extreme right will not go back to rule this country, especially with a negative, liar discourse, often even scoundrel.”
Lula was asked about the government’s strategy for the elections, given the announced project of the opposition to win the two -thirds, to impose conservative guidelines – and specifically if the Minister of Finance, could leave the government to run for governor or senator by Sao Paulo.
“Do you think I would be crazy to answer this now?” Lula reacted, smiling. He then said he will only take care of the theme in the election year.
“When next year comes, I’ll start discussing candidates. I don’t know who is better where. We have to mapping Brazil, see reality. They want to elect senators, governors, federal deputies, I also want. It’s a right that everyone wants to elect. When the exact time comes, we’ll choose the options,” he concluded.
Repeating what has already been saying on other occasions, Lula warned of the risk of an opposition campaign fed on fake news. “It will not be or that will make someone win the election. Without respecting people, social movements, women, blacks, indigenous people, [a oposição] won’t win the elections. “
Regarding negotiations of alternatives for the IOF (Tax on Financial Operations), Lula reiterated that “everything has been agreed” since the meeting on the 30th in the Dawn Palace, with Minister Haddad and the presidents of the Senate, (Union-AP), and the House, (-PB). “It will happen exactly what we get. No fight, no conflict. Just doing what has to be done,” said Lula.
