The leader of the House, the deputy, said that, by Minister Alexandre de Moraes, of the Supreme Court (STF), is a necessary brake against the former president.
“A former president who conspires with foreign powers to weaken his own country is not only facing justice, but betraying the constitutional foundations of the Republic. House arrest is a necessary brake until the final judgment, which tends to its definitive conviction and the beginning of the execution of the penalty,” he wrote in his X (former Twitter) account.
“Jair Bolsonaro’s house arrest was not only due to the breach of precautionary, but by the realization that he continues to act against the Democratic Rule of Law. As Minister Moraes pointed out, Bolsonaro has been looking for support from American authorities and politicians to delegitimize Brazilian institutions’, in articulation with international actors hostile to the country,” he says.
Still in his publication, Lindbergh recalls the articulation of Bolsonaro and his son, federal deputy Eduardo Bolsonaro (PL-SP), in the matter of the tariff imposed by the United States of. The 50% surcharge to Brazilian products has been used as a political object to negotiate the former president’s amnesty in the processes he faces.
“Even more serious: Jair Bolsonaro began to ‘support economic sanctions imposed by a foreign state to Brazil’, in an open offensive against national sovereignty,” the message says.
Ministers of the Government (PT) also made publications around Bolsonaro and his arrest, after the decision of Minister Alexandre de Moraes.
(Institutional Relations) directed its publication to the presidents of União Brasil, Antonio Rueda, and PP, Ciro Nogueira, for the criticisms made by President Lula in the issue of tariff. In the text, she states that leaders need to decide whether to support the interests of Brazil or those of Bolsonaro.
“Contrary to what the presidents of the UB and the PP say, it was not the president who sought the confrontation with the US government. It was not he who imposed fares or interfered with another country. Who caused Trump’s sanctions was the Bolsonaro family, in an act of betrayal of Brazil and our people,” she wrote.
“It is astonishing that these presidents of Brazilian political parties do not speak about this conspiracy against our sovereignty or the parliamentarians who support it, especially the deputy son of Jair Bolsonaro who is in the US acting against Brazil. They need to say which side they are: Brazil’s interests or Bolsonaro’s interests.”
Already Paulo Teixeira (agrarian development) published in his networks the warning about the arrest of the former president, with the message of “Urgent”.
