Brazilian Senator Marcos do Val has demanded the arrest of Justice Minister Flavion Dino and the impeachment of President Lula da Silva. The incoming Senate and Chamber of Deputies will have a conservative majority unless the left manage to prevent the right-wing delegates from taking their seats.
“This week I will request you immediate removal and request your arrest for the crime of malfeasance and for outher violations of the criminal code. I have already revealed that President Lula knew about the impending attacks 24 hours ahead of time and let them happen. I will request the opening of an impeachment process, for, in addition to letting our history be destroyed, you put our democracy and lives at risk”, do Val said.
The new Parliament will be inaugurated Feb. 1 with a conservative majority – one of the reasons why the results of the Presidential election in Brazil do not add up. Pro-Bolsonaro candidates gained in both chambers and regional governorships Oct. 3. A conservative Senator may be elected as President of the Senate. “The upcoming Senate presidency election is the most important in history. Brazil will have the chance to restore the balance between powers and restore Constitutional order”, Brazil in English writes.
During an interview on Monday, the Governor of the state of Minas Gerais, Romeu Zema, said the Lula government facilitated acts of vandalism in Brasília to “play the victim”, Brazil in English reported. “It seems to me that there was a mistake by the radical right, which is a minority. There was also an error, perhaps on purpose, committed by the Federal Government, which turned a blind eye [to the situation] so the worst could happen and they could play the victim. It’s an assumption. But the investigations will show if it really happened.”
“Confusing good citizens with vandals is a very serious mistake. You must punish those people who did the vandalism. But extending this to those who are demonstrating in an orderly manner is a very different situation,” said the Governor.
Speaking in the Portuguese Parliament, Congressman André Ventura of the right-wing Chega party, called Brazilian president Lula da Silva a “criminal”, saying the Portuguese people understand “the fury and anguish of millions of Brazilians at seeing their country governed by a thief”. Ventura said that it was “difficult to address the President of Brazil in any other way” and that he sympathized with the protests. The Parliament then voted to condemn the unrest that took place Jan. 8.
