Secret informant. Who started the "Maidan" in Brazil?
Volunteers working under the WikiLeaks brand made it known that Mr. Michel Temer, now the Acting President of Brazil, at one time was an informant for the US embassy and intelligence services. Information has become available to the general public. Later, supporters of Dilma Rousseff, who was removed from power, took to the streets of São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro with protests. However, their number was relatively small.
Michel Temer, appointed acting president of Brazil, as it turned out from the State Department’s diplomatic telegrams published by WikiLeaks, transmitted political information to the Americans.
"Temer, who dumped Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff, passed on secret political information to US intelligence services," the official Twitter quoted the project. "Lenta.ru".
The materials released by WikiLeaks refer to 2006. At that time, the presidency was held by Luis Inacio Lula da Silva, the predecessor of Rousseff and her left-wing colleague.
Telegrams shed light on the actions of a number of parties in a competitive environment, assess the chances of certain forces in elections, give a description of possible alliances. It was Temer, who at that time was sitting in the chair of the congressional deputy, informed the Americans about the political situation in the country.
As reported by 23 May "BBC"Dilma Rousseff’s supporters took to the streets of São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro and blocked a number of roads.
The protesters expressed dissatisfaction with the actions of Acting President Michel Temer. Demanding Temer’s resignation, activists approached his residence in Sao Paulo.
The protest organizers rated the number of protesters in São Paulo at 2000 people. About 1000 people gathered in Rio.
BBC notes that Temer was recently appointed to the post, but several protests have already taken place against him.
Earlier, Temer said that the priority task of Brazil will be to restore confidence in it in the international arena. He also planned to attract new foreign investment and achieve economic growth.
In the meantime, economic news from Brazil come the most sad.
On the evening of May 25, it became known that the state of Rio de Janeiro did not pay interest on the loan to the French Development Agency (public financial institution of France).
According to the Wall Street Journal, state authorities did not pay 8 million dollars for a loan provided to Rio de Janeiro by the said agency. “To lead. Economy".
The reason for non-payment was the decision of the court of Brazil, taken earlier and related to the priority of the allocation of funds by the authorities of Rio de Janeiro when paying pensions to citizens over the remaining payments, including debt service.
According to the Wall Street Journal, it was precisely because of rising social welfare spending and falling revenues of the budget of Rio de Janeiro and a number of other Brazilian states that "were on the verge of default."
It is because of the failures in the budget policy Dilma Rousseff, we recall, was removed from power. Lawmakers accused her of violating budget laws, saying that Rousseff and her office were guilty of plunging the country into poverty.
Supporters of the impeachment accused Mrs. Rousseff of financial irregularities that she made when distributing public funds. And we are talking not only about the last months of the government, but also about its previous presidential term.
During the 180 days of handling claims against the president, senators and judges must carefully examine each item of the charges. Then another vote will take place. If at least two-thirds of the senators once again support the impeachment, then Mr. Temer will remain at the head of the state before the 2018 election, and Rousseff will get the real impeachment and leave the government in disgrace. If there are not enough votes, Ruseff will have to return to power.
A few hours after the vote on the temporary removal from power, Rousseff gave a speech on national TV. She insisted that her predecessors at the post “used the same tactics”, used the same “accounting”, and that this “not a crime”. Prosecutors say that the dubious “accounting” let through huge sums.
It was about banned by law bank loans related to social programs, for example, programs to help farmers or families. The situation with such loans "masked." Information about multi-billion dollar loans was also hidden: the money was spent on government spending, and decisions were made without the approval of the legislators.
D. Rousseff condemned her removal from power, calling it a "farce" and a "conspiracy", and Temera accused of involvement in the "coup".
Vice President Michel Temer, in contrast to the “leftist” principles, Rousseff declares a freer market, reiterates the economic recovery, as well as the “unification of the nation”.
However, recent polls have shown that only 2% of Brazilians want the “vice” to become president. People do not like that Temer, among others, was implicated in the bribe scandal at the state-owned oil company Petrobras. True, he managed to avoid the charges. In addition, Temer is part of the previous government and therefore is responsible for the problems created in the country. It is unlikely that the people will elect him to the presidency, if it comes to this.
In recent days, distrust of Temer only grows.
As reported by 27 May IA "REGNUM" With reference to Folha de S. Paulo, one of the key ministers of the new government, Romero Zhuka, is supposed to have advocated the impeachment of Rousseff with the aim of stopping the investigation at Petrobras. As proof, the publication made public a record in which the aforementioned Beetle discusses with the Minister of Transport Sergio Machado the future transfer of power to the new government. Both officials are now under investigation for corruption.
Impeachment of Dilma Rousseff, as Ch. Brasil 247 editor Paulo M. Leite is a “dramatic action” that will have “huge historical the consequences and deep traumas in the economy, politics and the fate of the largest country in South America. ” And this impeachment was started for the sake of saving the "skins" of senators, ministers and businessmen, who, according to the editor-in-chief, were "mired in corruption."
Although the situation as a whole may remind the observer of the situation in Ukraine since the “Euromaidan”, in fact Dilma Rousseff is much more popular in Brazil than the corrupt Viktor Yanukovych, who fled to Russia with disgrace. It is hardly possible to compare.
The Brazilians are unhappy with the country's economic problems, but do not want M. Temer to sit in the chair of the president instead of Dilma, who had previously worked for the good of the United States and is extremely unpopular.
According to a recent survey that published a German magazine Spiegel, 58% (!) Brazilian citizens right now want ... Temer's resignation.
There is another factor: Temer’s unpopularity may grow even more if he risks reducing social assistance programs in Brazil. And he will probably have to do it sooner or later if he intends to follow the budget legislation of the country, which Dilma suffered because of violations, precisely. Or he will have to ask for help from international lenders, and this means following the stringent conditions and programs of the IMF, which have destroyed more than one country.
In short, if even Temer comes to power, he will have nothing to rejoice at.
