The domestic possession of the former Brazilian president was described in the international press.
The decision of the Federal Supreme Court Minister (STF) Alexandre de Moraes to decree the arrest of Jair Bolsonaro’s house “challenges the requirement of Donald Trump according to which Brazil puts an end to the former Brazilian president, according to a report by the British Newspaper Financial Times (5/8).
The newspaper recalls that Moraes’ decision was taken after the President of the United States imposed heavy commercial rates against Brazil last week, which require the closure of criminal proceedings against Bolsonaro.
“The last action against Bolsonaro, who is often called” Trump of the tropics “, will probably increase tensions in the middle of a crisis in the relationships between the two most populous democracies of the Americas”, says the text of Financial Times.
“Moraes is a figure hated by the Brazilian right movement and the US authorities imposed financial sanctions from him last week pursuant to the Magnitsky Law for alleged violations of human rights.”
The Financial Times also underlines that Bolsonaro “can spend the rest of his life in prison if considered guilty of having conspired the allies, including military personnel, to remain illegally in power after not being re -elected in 2022. Bolsonaro denies any irregularities”.
In addition to the detention at home, in Bolsonaro it is also forbidden to receive visits: “except from his lawyers regularly and with the power of attorney, as well as other people previously authorized” by the Stf.
Authorized visitors will not be able to use the mobile phone, take photos or record videos, as well as the former president, to whom it is also forbidden to use the mobile phone “directly or through third parties”.
The research and seizure of the former president was fulfilled in the late afternoon in Brasilia, according to the Federal Police.
Bolsonaro’s defense declared that he was “surprised” by the chamber’s arrest decree, since the former president “did not interrup any measure”.
For note, the lawyers said that Bolsonaro was not forbidden to keep interviews or make public speeches.
“The phrase ‘good afternoon, Copacabana. Good afternoon my Brazil. A hug to everyone. It is for our freedom. We are together’, it cannot be understood as a violation of the precautionary measure or as a criminal act.”
Donald Trump’s government has released a declaration that condemns the decision and stating that it is a “threat to democracy”. The office of the western hemisphere, part of the State Department, said that the United States “will be responsible for all those who assist and are accomplices of the Moraes conduct.
The domestic arrest of Jair Bolsonaro was presented in several printing vehicles all over the world.
The New York Times, one of the main American vehicles, said that Moraes’ measures “threaten to aggravate the greatest diplomatic crisis in decades between the United States and Brazil”, a reference to Donald Trump’s decision to “defend Bolsonaro and impose rates of 50% on some products in Brazil, the largest economy in Latin America, unless the trial against the former president has not been filmed”.
The British The Guardian stressed that the chamber’s arrest warrant is part of an ongoing trial in the Supreme Court, in which Bolsonaro is accused of conducting a conspiracy to cancel the results of the 2022 elections.
The newspaper also cites the climbing of the tension between Brazil and the United States and the application of the Magnitsky law against the Minister of the Stf. The Guardian stressed that the arrest of the house was “immediately sentenced by the United States”.
