Deputy participated remotely directly in the United States, where he remains since the beginning of the year, and stated that the sanctions applied based on magnitsky law would be consequences of human rights violations
The House of Representatives Commission of the House of Representatives held a public hearing on Wednesday to discuss the consequences of acts of 8 January and their international repercussions. The deputy (PL-SP) participated remotely directly in the United States, where he remains since the beginning of the year. During his speech, Eduardo again criticized the minister and stated that the sanctions applied by the United States, based on magnitsky law, would be a consequence of human rights violations. According to him, other STF ministers and Lula government members may also be the target of similar penalties.
The parliamentarian stated that “those who provide support, logistics or even moral, at risk of suffering the same sanctions.” He also indicated that new international measures against Brazilian authorities would be “very likely”, depending on the position of the US authorities. Political analysts assess that the deputy’s stance should intensify the tension between the STF and allies of former President Jair Bolsonaro, at a time when the trial is approached on the accusation of attempted coup d’état involving the former MANDHDER.
Behind the scenes, information circulates that the Bolsonaro family is experiencing a period of internal division. While Eduardo and Carlos adopt a harder stance against the institutions, Senator Flávio Bolsonaro has been acting more moderately, seeking political articulation from the century governors and parties. In addition, allies report that Jair Bolsonaro faces health problems and would be physically weakened, which increases the family’s apprehension in the face of the possibility of conviction. The perception of political isolation grows, especially after some old allies distance themselves from the former president, while names such as Governor Tarcisio de Freitas gain prominence as potential right leaders.
