Quoted as a candidate for president next year, the Governor (Republicans) sought to remove wear on the crisis of tariff to Brazil announced and in the last few hours have a round of conversations that passed the former president (), ministers of the (Supreme Court) and those in Brazil.
The Government (PT) has associated the economic consequences of the tariff with opposition, including Tarcisio, Bolsonaro’s ally.
According to the governor’s interlocutors, Tarcisio can be placed as a possible negotiator with Trump. The governor, however, in addition to finding obstacles in the conversation with ministers of the Supreme, saw resistance within the pocket field for this attempted dialogue with the United States.
licensed deputy and son of the former president, said for example that the eventual end of the tariff to the accused of the coup plot, which would include his father, defendant in the STF in the coup plot.
Former presenter Paulo Figueiredo, another pocketist who has a lawyer in the US for sanctions against the Lula administration, said Tarcisio “disturbs without even knowing.” “While the system hopes that it will emerge as the savior of the homeland by intermediating an agreement with the US, they will not even consider the one that is the only real solution: the broad, general and unrestricted amnesty.”
Another obstacle to Tarcisio’s aspirated negotiator’s role is Bolsonaro himself, who in a note a day earlier made it clear that what interests him is amnesty. The 50% rate of Brazilian products and their consequences for local producers have been ignored by the former president, who asks for haste to the powers to meet Trump’s demands.
In addition, according to allies, Bolsonaro wants to centralize in him and his children the direct dialogue with the Trump government. A possible Tarcisio mediation is seen by the clan as an attempt to flight from the former president’s political godson, who could be more politically strengthened in case of success.
Trump’s letter to Lula about the fare makes it clear that US motivation is the search for the end of the process against Bolsonaro in the STF.
Trump is an ally of Bolsonaro, Tarcisio’s political godfather, who is a fan of the US president, even on social networks after the US elections, something that has been explored by allies of the Planalto Palace in the face of the current crisis.
Tarcisio’s search now for a negotiator protagonism occurs, as the Sheetin an attempt to balance Bolsonaro between faithfulness and respect for justice and democracy.
In the evaluation of two party presidents, federal and state deputies allied to the governor and members of his team, Tarcisio’s image among the Bolsonarists will scratch if he does not support Trump measures or treat them as a direct reflection of an alleged undemocratic persecution suffered by the former president.
On the other hand, if you endorse the commercial barriers imposed by the US government, the wear and tear will be with the financial market, the agricultural sector and with voters outside the pocket field.
On Monday (7), when Trump published a text in defense of Bolsonaro, Tarcisio quickly reverberated the message, treating the initiative as a victory of pockets and to judge the criminal case against the ally.
“Jair Bolsonaro must be tried only by the Brazilian people during the elections. Force, President,” he said at the time, also in a criticism of decisions of the (Superior Electoral Court), that he ordered Bolsonaro and declared him ineligible by 2030 for the use of the machine in elections and attacks on the Electoral Justice.
Tarcisio’s race began on Thursday afternoon, and traveled to Brasilia to meet Bolsonaro. On the same day, the former president published a note on social networks in which he made it clear that amnesty is what interests him most at the moment.
Bolsonaro did not even enter the merit of the tariff, he only cited the measure, and, which directly charges the closure of the trial in the Supreme Court. If convicted, Bolsonaro can be arrested this year and take a 40 -year sentence.
Another initiative of Tarcisio ended up as a skid. As revealed, from Sheetwhat they allowed Bolsonaro to travel to the US to meet Trump and negotiate the tariff.
Tarcisio’s proposal was considered amazing and bustling by the ministers.
Already on the morning of Friday Tarcisio had a meeting with the head of the US embassy in Brasilia, Gabriel Escobar.
“I just met with Gabriel Escobar, in charge of US embassy business in Brazil in Brasilia. We talked about the consequences of the tariff for Brazilian industry and agro and also the reflection of this for US companies,” Tarcisio wrote on a social network.
“We will open dialogue with the companies of São Paulo, based on data and consolidated arguments, to seek effective solutions. It is necessary to negotiate. Narratives will not solve the problem. The responsibility is of those who govern,” added the governor in the same post.
Escobar is in charge of US mission business in Brazil, which has been without ambassador since the beginning of Trump management.
The US embassy confirmed the meeting between Escobar and Tarcisio and stressed that it is the state “with the largest US investment concentration in Brazil”.
“We emphasize that US diplomats meet regularly with Brazilian governors. The US Embassy promotes the interests of US companies and bilateral cooperation,” the representation said in a statement.
On Wednesday (9), the day Trump released on social networks a letter announced the surcharges and again complained of political persecution against Bolsonaro, Escobar was convened twice to Itamaraty to provide explanations.
In diplomacy, it is a form of the host country, in this case Brazil, demonstrates profound dissatisfaction with the conduct of the bilateral relationship. At the second meeting, representatives of Itamaraty to Escobar the letter addressed by Trump to Lula.
