Federal Deputy Aécio Neves (PSDB-MG) said on Friday 13, that the PSDB gave up on the process of merging with Somos, whose negotiation was in the final stretch after a toucan convention authorized the junction of the two acronyms last week. The information was later confirmed by the president of the subtitle, Marconi Perillo (PSDB). Sought, we could not manifest itself.
The reason was a disagreement about the command of the new party. According to Aécio, the PSDB proposal was that there was a presidential rotation, with changes every six months and then every year. This period of transition would end in the municipal election of 2028, when a conventional election would be made to form a national directory and an executive with a two -year term.
According to Aécio, Somos demanded at a meeting on Wednesday, 11, four years of presidency for federal deputy Renata Abreu (Somos) from now on.
“It is a requirement that was not even being considered and for us, it is insurmountable,” he said, adding that PSDB President Marconi Perillo and the other party leaders are on the same page.
“We thank you, we said that at this time [de mandato] We do not give and immediately resume conversations about Federation with Republicans, Solidarity and the MDB, ”he said. The toucan leader does not rule out a resumption of negotiation with Somos, but for a federation.
Perillo confirmed the suspension of negotiations and divergence about the command of the new subtitle. “On the other hand, we continue to insist on the idea of building a political platform that groups the Democratic Center and presents to the country an alternative of power.

A source linked to Somos stated that it is natural that Renata Abreu commands the acronym that would result from the merger because it has a bench of 15 federal deputies, will still join two more, against 13 of the PSDB. In the Senate, Somos has four senators and the toucans, three.
The union between PSDB and we can be politically treated as a fusion, but in practice toucans would incorporate Renata Abreu’s party. The PSDB, being federated with citizenship, would need the endorsement of the caption for a merger.
The attempted union occurs in a party tape in Brazil forced by the barrier clause and a process of emptying the PSDB. The toucans lost their national influence in the past decades, saw the federal bench define in recent years and may be without elected governors. Eduardo Riedel (PSDB-MS) negotiates his affiliation with PP or PSD, in the wake of the governors of Rio Grande do Sul, Eduardo Leite (PSD), and Pernambuco, Raquel Lyra (PSD), who recently left the PSDB.
