The Santa Catarina Governor Jorginho Mello (PL) made a “joke” in reference to the separatist movement “The South is my country”, which proposes the separation of the states of Paraná, Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul from the rest of Brazil. “We have two candidates for the presidency of the Republic here. In a moment, if the business does not work very well up there, we passed a meal to the side of here and do ‘the south is our country’, right?” Said the governor, causing laughter from the audience. The speech took place during a construction event in Curitiba, Paraná, on Thursday, 12.
Allied to former President Jair Bolsonaro (PL), Mello referred to gaucho governors, Eduardo Leite (PSD), and Paraná, Ratinho Júnior (PSD), talking about the “presidential”.

No, ”he said laughing.
