the ambassador of European Union in Brazil, Ignacio Ybañez, shared this Sunday (5), in his official profile on social networks, a journalistic article in which he criticizes the president’s posture Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva (PT) in relation to the authoritarian regimes of Cuba, Venezuela It is Nicaragua. In the article published in Folha de S.Paulo, columnist Demétrio Magnoli cites Lula’s statements at the summit of the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC), in Argentina, in January, and argues that the president “celebrated democracy with one face while celebrating his pet dictators with the other”. For Magnoli, who said that Lula is “fossilized”, the president did not use his speech to defend free elections in Venezuela, Cuba and Nicaragua and even “performed his usual acrobatics destined to legitimize tyrannies”. The PT also pointed to dialogue as a solution to the “problem” in Venezuela, said the columnist. “Time passed at the window and only Carolina didn’t see it”, says an excerpt from the article, in reference to the song by Chico Buarque, which was highlighted in the EU ambassador’s publication.
