The proposal includes up to 40 years in prison for those who collaborate with foreign governments against Brazilian institutions
The Federal Federal Lindbergh Farias (PT-RJ) has announced that it will present a bill that tries to seriously criminalize the acts considered “high betrayals for the homeland”.
The proposal, according to the parliamentarian, was inspired directly by the recent actions of the deputy federal Eduardo Bolsonaro (PL-SP), which, in the United States, articulated with the members of the Congress and the American Society sectors to impose sanctions against the Minister of Federal Supreme Court (STF), Alexandre de Moraes and destabilizes the government of President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.

The proposal provides for rigid penalties: imprisonment from 20 to 40 years, in addition to the loss of mandates, military patents, public or elective positions for the people involved. The goal is to punish those who collaborate with foreign governments to direct the loss in the country, both public and reserved.
The central device of the project aims to reach those who “require, stimulate or support, publicly or reserved, the adoption of economic, diplomatic, military or Brazil policies by the government or foreign entity, in order to press, punish or destabilize national public authorities, institutions or public policies”.
According to Lindbergh, the Brazilian law has a gap in this type of crime, now scarcely defined or limited to military reach.
“We realized that there is a void on this criminal type of national treason, and we made a specific typing on Eduardo’s actions. The inspiration was exactly this moment, we realized that we did not have the typing in the criminal code. What we found closest was an article of the military criminal code that could be used for civilians, including me and the senator Randolfe Rodrigues.
The construction of the proposal used as a reference to British legislation and other similar rules applied in countries in Europe and the United States, which already criminalize the documents of collaboration with foreign powers against national interest.
In addition to Eduardo Bolsonaro, Lindbergh aims at other names, such as the economist and commentator Paulo Figueiredo Filho-Grandson of the former military president João Figuereire-which would actively collaborate in the same joints in the American territory. Currently, Paul is considered fugitive by Brazilian justice.
This new offensive is not the first assault by Lindbergh against the authorized deputy. At the end of July, he submitted a request to suspend Eduardo’s mandate and the blockage of his parliamentary remuneration, sent to the mayor, Hugo Motta (Republicans-PB).
Already in March, together with the deputy
Lindbergh also asked the Court to seize Eduardo’s passport, a request that was denied by Minister Alexandre de Moraes after the opposite of the office of the Prosecutor General.
Eduardo Bolsonaro, who announced his mandate license in March, currently lives in the United States. He says that his change was due to an alleged political persecution against him and his father, the former president Jair Bolsonaro.
During his stay in the country, the deputy admitted to keeping meetings with US politicians and institutions, with the aim of pressing the Brazilian government and authorities as Moraes.
He even asked the former president Donald Trump that the Minister of the Stf would have been included in the so -called Magnitsky law, an American rule that allows sanctions against people accused of violating human rights or being involved in corruption.
