Rousseff may have a symbolic return as president of Brazil

Rousseff-768x576
Brasilia, Aug 27 (Prensa Latina) Former Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff, relieved of office in 2016 by a judicial parliamentary coup, may have a symbolic return of her mandate, Gleisi Hoffmann, head of the Workers' Party, Folha of Sao Paulo reported today.

The political organization intends to articulate a resolution for this act in the National Congress, Hoffmann revealed to the Folha de Sao Paulo newspaper.

The Federal Regional Court of the First Region (TRF-1), based in the Federal District, exonerated Rousseff on August 21 of having committed the so-called fiscal peddling (irregularities used by the Government to improve accounts), which founded her process of impeachment (removal).

“I conceive there is room for a draft resolution in this sense based on the TRF-1 decision, which makes it clear that the impeachment was a great farce, that the story of the pedaling was a trap, literally a blow.¨

Rousseff may have a symbolic return as president of Brazil.¨Dilma and the story of Brazil deserve that,¨ Hoffmann said.

The deputy has as reference the symbolic return of the mandate of the ruler João Goulart, deposed by the military coup of 1964.

Based on the project of legislators Pedro Simon and Randolfe Rodrigues, in 2013 Congress annulled the session of April 2, 1964, in which the then helmsman of Parliament, Auro de Moura Andrade, declared vacant the Presidency of the Republic.

On the occasion, the former president of Congress, Senator Renan Calheiros, made an apology “for the falsehoods sponsored by the Brazilian State” against a patriot.

During an interview in Luanda, the capital of Angola, President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva commented yesterday that a discussion is required on how to repair Rousseff, who is currently the head of the Brics bank, an economic group made up of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa.

“Now I am going to discuss how we are going to do it, political rights cannot be repaired if she wants to be president again, because I want to finish my term. But you have to know how to repair something that was judged for something that did not happen,” Lula said. .

We managed to demonstrate that the former president (2011-2016) did not cause any damage to public coffers, lawyer Ricardo Lodi Ribeiro declared at the time.

“This is yet another demonstration of the farce of the impeachment, which had no legal basis, having only been a parliamentary action aimed at removing a president elected by the people,” he concluded.
