  6. Desconhecido

    0:21

    Joining me in this interview are journalists Fernando Mitter and Thaís Freitas.
  7. Desconhecido

    0:25

    Before Mitter and Thaís, Renan, let me also ask a question.
  8. Desconhecido

    0:28

    It's your first time here.
  9. Desconhecido

    0:29

    Aldo has already been on other programs with us.
  10. Desconhecido

    0:31

    I'd like you to say who Renan Santos is, to introduce yourself also to the audience that doesn't know you yet, and also, in a way, which proposals — two or three priorities — you would put on the table.
  11. Renan Santos

    0:45

    Well, indeed it's my first time here; I'd like to thank Band, thank the entire team present, thank Aldo.
  12. Renan Santos

    0:50

    Well, my name is Renan Santos, I'm 42 years old, I was born in São Paulo, I'm from a middle-class family, I'm one of the founders of the Movimento Brasil Livre.
  13. Renan Santos

    0:57

    Neutral

    About: organize popular demonstrations against governments or corrupt acts

    I participated in the demonstrations that resulted in the removal of Dilma Rousseff.

    Why it was classified this way · 70% confidence Reports historical participation in demonstrations without proposing new action.

  14. Renan Santos

    1:01

    For

    About: combat corruption and hold those involved accountable

    At the time I fought for support of Operation Lava Jato, which later proved, let's say, to be a useful operation in combating corruption, but which was subsequently dismantled by Mr. Jair Bolsonaro, his family and the STF.

    Why it was classified this way · 88% confidence Declares having 'lutado pelo apoio à Lava Jato' and criticizes its dismantling.

  15. Renan Santos

    1:15

    Based on the struggle we had not only against corruption, but in the fight for a freer Brazil, a Brazil in which working and producing, and walking the streets free from organized crime should be a premise.
  16. Renan Santos

    1:26

    I understood that we should not be just a movement, but also a political party.
  17. Renan Santos

    1:30

    For

    About: found a political party

    On that basis, we founded the Missão Party, the newest and youngest party, founded now at the end of last year.

    Why it was classified this way · 75% confidence States 'fundamos o Partido Missão', claiming the party's founding was a political choice.

  18. Renan Santos

    1:35

    And what do we stand for?
  19. Renan Santos

    1:36

    Starting even with a diagnosis, I think it's a problem of lack of imagination in Brazil.
  20. Renan Santos

    1:40

    Brazilians have lost so much hope in themselves that we can hardly even imagine ourselves as what we should be, which is one of the five largest nations in the world.
  21. Renan Santos

    1:48

    Brazil was born to be one of the five largest nations in the world.
  22. Renan Santos

    1:50

    And our goal — hence the name of our party, Missão — is in 30 years to place Brazil at the table with China, Russia, the United States and India, determining what is important in the world.
  23. Renan Santos

    1:58

    We have territory, we have population, we have resources, and what we lack in practice is imagination.
  24. Renan Santos

    2:04

    And then the proposals within that imagination?
  25. Renan Santos

    2:06

    For

    About: retake territories dominated by organized crime

    Return Brazilian territory to Brazilians, remove organized crime from the areas it currently occupies.

    Why it was classified this way · 92% confidence Explicitly proposes 'retirar o crime organizado das áreas que ele hoje ocupa'.

  26. Renan Santos

    2:10

    For

    About: promote an agenda of privatizations and reforms

    Carry out a fiscal reform accompanied by a competitiveness reform to allow companies to establish themselves in Brazil and for Brazilians to have the possibility to make money and create jobs freely.

    Why it was classified this way · 88% confidence Advocates 'reforma fiscal acompanhada de reforma de competitividade' to attract companies.

  27. Renan Santos

    2:21

    For

    About: implement regular targets and monitoring in public administration

    Carry out a reform that I call the managerial responsibility law that makes mayors, in fact, friends of public policies that work and not mere administrators of earmarks, as happens throughout Brazil and keeps entire regions of Brazil.

    Why it was classified this way · 86% confidence Proposes 'lei de responsabilidade gerencial' to make mayors agents of public policy.

  28. Renan Santos

    2:32

    I visited Maranhão to see this.
  29. Renan Santos

    2:34

    as a place that treats people like animals, administers earmarks only to divert funds, keeping an extremely low HDI.
  30. Renan Santos

    2:41

    So, these challenges, the three I listed, are the challenges that our mandate, if it happens, will change the destiny of Brazil.
  31. Desconhecido

    2:48

    I'd like to ask a political question to the two pre-candidates here about growth strategy.
  32. Desconhecido

    2:54

    Today, according to the polls, we have two candidates who dominate the voting intention.
  33. Desconhecido

    2:59

    Lula and Flávio Bolsonaro.
  34. Desconhecido

    3:01

    So I'd like to hear from you what strategy you have for growth.
  35. Desconhecido

    3:05

    and then you be more specific.
  36. Desconhecido

    3:07

    Asking Renan... Do you expect to steal votes more to the right from Flávio Bolsonaro, since it seems to me that it's a little more difficult to break into the PT voter's base?
  37. Renan Santos

    3:17

    Against

    About: seek voters of the Bolsonaro family

    Starting to answer your question, I will not begin — and we are not doing that — from the premise that I must be tied to chasing the Bolsonaro family's voters.

    Why it was classified this way · 90% confidence Explicitly says 'eu não vou partir... da premissa que eu preciso ficar preso a buscar eleitores'.

  38. Renan Santos

    3:26

    I leave that strategy to Zema, I leave it to Caiado, who are making public displays that they like Bolsonaro very much.
  39. Renan Santos

    3:31

    Caiado even said that the first thing he will do as president is to benefit the Bolsonaros.
  40. Renan Santos

    3:35

    And basically... part of their campaign...
  41. Desconhecido

    3:37

    Are you saying amnesty?
  42. Desconhecido

    3:38

    Amnesty, no.
  43. Desconhecido

    3:39

    For

    About: grant amnesty to those responsible for invading public buildings

    The first thing I'll do with the president is amnesty.

    Why it was classified this way · 90% confidence Clearly states 'a primeira coisa que eu vou fazer ... é anistia'.

  44. Desconhecido

    3:40

    Would you do it, if elected?
  45. Renan Santos

    3:41

    Sentencing, not amnesty.
  46. Renan Santos

    3:43

    Against

    About: grant amnesty to those responsible for invading public buildings

    Sentencing, which is what we voted in favor of in Congress, but not amnesty.

    Why it was classified this way · 92% confidence Denies amnesty saying 'dosimetria... mas não anistia'.

  47. Renan Santos

    3:48

    For

    About: investigate and punish crimes committed by political agents

    Those people, including Bolsonaro, committed crimes.

    Why it was classified this way · 85% confidence Says that 'inclusive o Bolsonaro, cometeram crimes', justifying holding them accountable.

  48. Renan Santos

    3:50

    For

    About: investigate and punish crimes committed by political agents

    We can discuss the formal defects involved there, but a crime was committed.

    Why it was classified this way · 75% confidence acknowledges formal debates but reaffirms that a crime was committed.

  49. Renan Santos

    3:53

    For

    About: enforce the laws and the Constitution

    and I always say to Bolsonaro supporters, if it were the MST that invaded the public buildings, what would they say?

    Why it was classified this way · 88% confidence questions differential treatment using a hypothetical example of the MST.

  50. Renan Santos

    3:58

    Would they ask for amnesty for those people?
  51. Renan Santos

    4:00

    For

    About: enforce the laws and the Constitution

    A crime is a crime, regardless of whether you're wearing red or yellow.

    Why it was classified this way · 90% confidence normatively asserts 'Crime é crime, não importa se você está de vermelho ou amarelo'.

  52. Renan Santos

    4:03

    That said, am I traveling around Brazil?
  53. Renan Santos

    4:05

    And I am talking about people's concrete problems and bringing concrete solutions right into the heart of each one's electorate.
  54. Renan Santos

    4:11

    I was as well received in Maranhão, which is supposedly an electoral stronghold of lulism, as I was in Santa Catarina now, which is an electoral stronghold of bolsonarism.
  55. Renan Santos

    4:21

    And I addressed local problems and grew in both places.
  56. Renan Santos

    4:24

    I was, according to Google Trends, the most searched person in Maranhão the week before last.
  57. Renan Santos

    4:29

    So, there is an answer we can give.
  58. Renan Santos

    4:33

    There is a weariness with polarization and the polls reveal to us a
  59. Desconhecido

    4:35

    recall,
  60. Renan Santos

    4:36

    that is, the top-of-mind, the name that comes to people's minds when they imagine elections, is still the surname Bolsonaro, now with Flávio, and the name Lula, with the current president of the republic.
  61. Renan Santos

    4:47

    But younger people who are already indifferent to that are looking for other alternatives.
  62. Renan Santos

    4:52

    When you look among younger people, I am above 20% according to the Atlas poll, and when you isolate young men, I am above 30%.
  63. Renan Santos

    4:59

    Neutral

    About: increase electoral preference for the Missão party among youth

    The party I founded, the Missão party, has 5.8% preference among Brazilians and when I look at younger people it reaches almost 30%.

    Why it was classified this way · 70% confidence reports poll results without proposing immediate action.

  64. Renan Santos

    5:08

    What's the message of that?
  65. Renan Santos

    5:09

    Neutral

    About: prioritize and strengthen public safety policies to retake territory

    People who are not, let's say, trapped in a public debate that for six years has only been talking about Bolsonaro, Lula and STF (Supreme Federal Tribunal), want solutions for public safety, lack of employment, lack of prospects, and a total and complete absence of urban infrastructure.

    Why it was classified this way · 65% confidence reports electoral demands ('querem soluções para segurança pública, emprego') without proposing a plan.

  66. Renan Santos

    5:24

    And these people are not going to say, 'ah, what's the problem with that?'
  67. Renan Santos

    5:26

    'Ah, the problem is Lula.'
  68. Renan Santos

    5:28

    'No, the problem is Bolsonaro.'
  69. Renan Santos

    5:29

    So, when I was in Maranhão, taking pothole-ridden roads and seeing people sharing food with vultures, as I saw in Pinheiro, Sarney's land, the people weren't there, you know?
  70. Renan Santos

    5:38

    'Ah, that's Lula's fault, Bolsonaro's fault.'
  71. Renan Santos

    5:39

    People say, how are you going to deal with the vulture that's next to my house?
  72. Renan Santos

    5:42

    And when addressing these issues, that's when the communication question comes in; in an intelligent way, we grow.
  73. Renan Santos

    5:47

    So my goal is to do that.
  74. Renan Santos

    5:48

    For

    About: focus campaign on concrete problems like security, employment, and urban infrastructure

    I will enter the heart of the Bolsonaro supporter and the heart of the Lula supporter by talking about concrete problems for them.

    Why it was classified this way · 85% confidence declares 'eu vou entrar no coração' addressing concrete issues as a campaign strategy.

  75. Desconhecido

    5:53

    For

    About: organize and integrate the fight against organized crime

    It is necessary to have an organized and integrated fight.

    Why it was classified this way · 90% confidence states 'É preciso que haja um combate organizado e integrado' advocating coordination.

  76. Desconhecido

    5:58

    against organized crime, which is more than integrated, organized, etc.
  77. Desconhecido

    6:03

    The lawful forces are not; they are fragmented.
  78. Desconhecido

    6:06

    There is a project there that did not unite the country, did not unite the political leaders, and much less the governments.
  79. Desconhecido

    6:15

    And without that integration, this fight will not have a positive result.
  80. Desconhecido

    6:20

    How do you see the political difficulty, I ask you both, in bringing together all the country's forces?
  81. Desconhecido

    6:27

    The governors and the Union.
  82. Desconhecido

    6:29

    For

    About: federal government to coordinate combating organized crime with support from the states

    It is evident that someone has to coordinate this; it has to be the Union.

    Why it was classified this way · 92% confidence explicitly says 'tem que ser a União' and that 'o governo federal deve coordenar'.

  83. Desconhecido

    6:32

    The federal government must coordinate the major fight against organized crime in Brazil, with the support of the States.
  84. Desconhecido

    6:39

    I'm talking about the structure the country has.
  85. Desconhecido

    6:44

    Without that structure in its fullness, it will be difficult to win this war.
  86. Desconhecido

    6:49

    I wanted to ask how you see the political issues preventing the union of forces against organized crime.
  87. Desconhecido

    6:56

    A bit of what Mitri said, about this integration also among the forces.
  88. Desconhecido

    7:00

    And sometimes even political will is lacking among these entities.
  89. Renan Santos

    7:03

    For

    About: ensure state political will to confront organized crime

    But that is the main problem.

    Why it was classified this way · 80% confidence attributes failure to the 'falta de vontade política' in state forces and calls for action.

  90. Renan Santos

    7:04

    The reality is that the security forces in the states know what to do.
  91. Renan Santos

    7:09

    I was in Ceará and we have entire cities taken over by organized crime.
  92. Renan Santos

    7:13

    There is no will, I repeat here; I have even been sued twice by the governor of Ceará.
  93. Renan Santos

    7:17

    There is no political will to solve this.
  94. Renan Santos

    7:19

    There is no will at all.
  95. Renan Santos

    7:20

    And I suspect, and I might get a third lawsuit, that the government of Ceará is especially lenient with the advance of the Comando Vermelho.
  96. Renan Santos

    7:26

    There are governors who do not have the political will to solve this.
  97. Renan Santos

    7:29

    The same thing is happening in Bahia with Jerônimo.
  98. Renan Santos

    7:31

    The police forces there complain, look, I want to act, we know where an area is taken over by organized crime, we have forces available, it's not difficult to exchange fire and resolve it, it's not difficult to recover that area, but we can't do anything.
  99. Renan Santos

    7:44

    There is no command, there is no will.
  100. Renan Santos

    7:46

    One of the most absurd things I saw in Ceará was during the takeover of a city, Santa Quitéria, they were discussing the Pena Justa program, which would release more criminals because the prisons were supposedly not in the desirable condition for those criminals.
  101. Renan Santos

    7:59

    For

    About: implement effective operational actions against organized crime

    So what the president of the republic has to do is, if I am elected president, very clearly, the issue that elected me was the destruction of organized crime.

    Why it was classified this way · 92% confidence states that 'o tema que me elegeu foi a destruição do crime organizado'.

  102. Renan Santos

    8:07

    I've been saying that for two years.
  103. Renan Santos

    8:09

    It will be a plebiscitary election.
  104. Renan Santos

    8:10

    The guy who decided to elect Renan Santos, he decided to elect me as well, and largely because of that.
  105. Renan Santos

    8:15

    For

    About: declare a state of defense in areas seized by organized crime

    So, once there, the states that decide not to cooperate, given that we are talking about the... seizure of spaces of Brazilian territory, we will declare a specific state of defense in those states and municipalities.

    Why it was classified this way · 92% confidence proposes 'vamos fazer um estado de defesa específico nesses estados e municípios'.

  106. Renan Santos

    8:26

    Cooperation needs to happen.
  107. Renan Santos

    8:27

    And I'm already warning some states.
  108. Renan Santos

    8:29

    Ceará needs to.
  109. Renan Santos

    8:31

    Want another state?
  110. Renan Santos

    8:32

    Bahia needs to.
  111. Renan Santos

    8:32

    People talk a lot about Rio de Janeiro, but the state of Ceará has a much worse situation than the Carioca [one].
  112. Renan Santos

    8:37

    Rio de Janeiro is a bizarre example in many respects, but sometimes it becomes almost anecdotal.
  113. Renan Santos

    8:41

    The situation, the number of deaths per 100,000 inhabitants in Ceará...
  114. Desconhecido

    8:44

    The rates are worse.
  115. Desconhecido

    8:45

    Much worse.
  116. Desconhecido

    8:46

    Perhaps the number of areas under control is this larger number.
  117. Renan Santos

    8:51

    Rio de Janeiro is more balkanized; there's one faction here, another taking over a building there, one against another.
  118. Renan Santos

    8:56

    But in the case of Ceará, you're talking about monopolistic takeovers by the Comando Vermelho and auxiliary factions.
  119. Renan Santos

    9:01

    If the government is stalled, the government has to be... replaced, then people will vote for another government, or when we come to power, if they decide not to cooperate, we will declare a specific state of defense, for a specific period, so that we can retake those territories.
  120. Renan Santos

    9:15

    And only in the specific areas.
  121. Renan Santos

    9:17

    There are even those people who say, 'but what about democracy?'
  122. Renan Santos

    9:19

    There is no democracy in Santa Quitéria, in Ceará.
  123. Renan Santos

    9:22

    For

    About: declare a state of defense in areas seized by organized crime

    I will declare a state of defense and will use the police forces and, if necessary, the national security forces, the armed forces, to carry out these operations.

    Why it was classified this way · 90% confidence reaffirms that 'vou fazer um estado de defesa' and will use federal forces if necessary.

  124. Renan Santos

    9:30

    Period.
  125. Renan Santos

    9:30

    For

    About: retake territories dominated by organized crime

    We will recover those territories and then deliver human rights to the people who need them.

    Why it was classified this way · 90% confidence proposes reclaiming territories and 'entregar direitos humanos' to local populations.

  126. Renan Santos

    9:35

    For

    About: ensure cooperation between states and the Union in combating organized crime

    The way things are, I reiterate, there are governors who are cooperating, directly or indirectly, with the advance of crime.

    Why it was classified this way · 88% confidence states that 'existem governadores que não cooperam' and that this 'precisa acabar'.

  127. Renan Santos

    9:42

    And that needs to end.
  128. Desconhecido

    9:43

    Let me just pick up that point.
  129. Desconhecido

    9:44

    Paulo says, in Santa Quitéria, which he is citing here, which is the case in Ceará, there exists... Uranium?
  130. Desconhecido

    9:50

    A uranium and phosphate mine has been waiting for licensing for 30 years.
  131. Desconhecido

    9:55

    It's uranium and phosphate.
  132. Desconhecido

    9:56

    The country imports phosphate.
  133. Desconhecido

    9:57

    For

    About: license and exploit mineral reserves (phosphate/uranium) to generate local wealth

    There is phosphate there in Santa Quitéria waiting for licensing.

    Why it was classified this way · 88% confidence states there is a mine awaiting licensing that could generate wealth.

  134. Desconhecido

    10:01

    Ibama, I don't know if FUNAI issues any measures, the Public Ministry, are blocking Santa Quitéria.
  135. Desconhecido

    10:06

    That could generate wealth for the city, for the State and for Brazil.
  136. Desconhecido

    10:09

    It's sitting there idle.
  137. Desconhecido

    10:10

    Exactly.
  138. Desconhecido

    10:10

    It's easier for the Comando Vermelho to make a dirty bomb
  139. Desconhecido

    10:13

    with uranium than for us to produce fertilizers for our agriculture.
  140. Desconhecido

    10:16

    This is the national joke we're living through.
  141. Desconhecido

    10:18

    Neutral

    About: strengthen defense capacity to guarantee Brazilian sovereignty

    Today the Armed Forces complain a lot about lack of resources.

    Why it was classified this way · 65% confidence reports the Armed Forces' complaint about lack of resources without proposing a concrete plan.

  142. Desconhecido

    10:21

    The world 20 years ago, when you had a global order with the UN and
  143. Desconhecido

    10:25

    etc.,
  144. Desconhecido

    10:26

    people imagined that, look, it's okay, it would be difficult for anyone to come in here, to invade, land grabs were being discussed, Brazil is the second-largest reserve in the world, we have the Blue Amazon, so... This discussion was not so latent.
  145. Desconhecido

    10:38

    Neutral

    About: develop national air defense capability

    Faced with a president now, Donald Trump, who intervened to arrest Maduro, who is now doing what he's doing in that Middle East region and so on, we are confronted, for example, with the information that Brazil has no air defense.

    Why it was classified this way · 70% confidence factually asserts that 'o Brasil não tem defesa aérea' as the context of a question.

  146. Desconhecido

    10:52

    Brazil has no air defense.
  147. Desconhecido

    10:53

    If he wants to do what he did, Trump, with Maduro, he'd come in here like a madman.
  148. Desconhecido

    And the major nations possess technologies we have no idea about in the military realm.
  155. Renan Santos

    Few people followed or covered in Brazil what the Palantir Manifesto was; Palantir is the leading military technology company in the United States today.

    12:05

    But our territory is coveted.
  163. Renan Santos

    12:07

    As you mentioned in your initial question, we have rare earths, natural resources, water, territory, fertile soil, and we are a contested territory.
  164. Renan Santos

    12:15

    China was trying to carry out its geopolitical occupation here in Latin America and the United States sees us as a strategic reserve.
  165. Renan Santos

    12:21

    So we will be in the middle of that conflict.
  166. Renan Santos

    12:23

    And it's a conflict that will reach the Americas.
  167. Renan Santos

    12:25

    And we must, out of necessity, if we want to preserve our territory of imperial, continental dimensions, as a nationalist imperative, keep our country intact by defending ourselves using the best available technology.
  168. Renan Santos

    12:38

    And we have an opportunity that was given to us by God, which is the rare earths.
  169. Renan Santos

  182. Desconhecido

    Do you think that sometimes, for example, regulating and exploiting more rare earths that have not yet been exploited, you can take part of that money and direct it to defense investment?
  183. Desconhecido

    Where do you think this resource could come from, which is really not small for investment in this area?
  184. Renan Santos

    It was the PEC, but the government will present a project.
  212. Renan Santos

    16:04

    Since the PEC is moving forward, the little show is running on the PEC.
  213. Renan Santos

    And it seems to me that there is a desire among left-wing parliamentarians to promote themselves by discussing this.
  214. Renan Santos

    16:13

    and the right-wing parliamentarians do not want to generate rejection.
  215. Renan Santos

    16:15

    This is already the second time that an agenda dear to the left has relied on the capitulation of the right.
  216. Renan Santos

    Bolsonarism there in the misogynistic PL (Liberal Party) voted together with the left and then keeps pointing the finger at everyone and calls everyone a communist.
  217. Renan Santos

    16:25

    if you do not blindly support Bolsonaro, which is cowardice, a capitulation.
  218. Renan Santos

    16:29

    It even fits very well with Flávio Bolsonaro, who doesn't like to go on programs like this one and who said publicly that he does not intend to show his proposals because that could cost him votes.
  219. Renan Santos

    16:38

    I have to say what is unpopular.
  220. Renan Santos

    16:40

    This project, it is a scam.
  221. Renan Santos

    16:42

    And it's a scam aimed at, especially urban workers, who spend a good part of their day in traffic — someone who leaves from a periphery and goes to work downtown here in São Paulo, it takes two hours, they lose two hours to go, two hours to return.
  222. Renan Santos

    16:54

    When you see it, they lose more than 20 hours a week just in transit.
  223. Renan Santos

    16:57

    They lose time to be with family, time with friends, time to qualify themselves, time to take a course, training.
  224. Renan Santos

    17:03

    That person, in practice, suffers from this.
  225. Renan Santos

    17:04

    They have taken that pain and are trying to regain some kind of connection with the ordinary worker.
  226. Renan Santos

    17:08

    A connection they lost because they spent the past years only talking about 'I'm trans or I'm not', 'I'm a woman or I'm not'.
  227. Renan Santos

    17:14

    Some petty Byzantine discussions that have no practical use for the worker.
  228. Renan Santos

    And they, in polls—the PT (Workers' Party) has already commissioned polls—saw that they are losing that worker.
  229. Renan Santos

    17:42

    And when you look at labor laws in all those places, they are much more flexible.
  233. Renan Santos

    What I need to tell the Brazilian worker is that you need flexibility.
  234. Renan Santos

    to make your contracts and your work, as happens in those other nations, where worker income increases and formal work increases.
  235. Renan Santos

    Here formal work decreases and the worker's income is tight.
  236. Renan Santos

  357. Renan Santos

    25:44

    A mayor today wins an election by staging a Wesley Safadão concert funded by an allied deputy's amendment, and then... pure and simple vote buying.
  358. Renan Santos

    25:51

    That's how small municipalities in Brazil work and we can't escape it.
  359. Renan Santos

    25:55

    Especially because there is no democracy in practice in Brazil.
  360. Renan Santos

  365. Renan Santos

    About: condition party transfers on the performance of elected officials

    The electoral party fund in Brazil, which is already very large, should not be conditioned on the number of Tiriricas, or Nicolas Ferreiras, or Éricas Hilton that you elect in your party.

    Why it was classified this way · 90% confidence Argues for conditioning the party fund on objective performance criteria.

  371. Renan Santos

    26:53

    It has to be conditioned on these objective performance criteria of your mayors.
  372. Renan Santos

    26:57

    So, a party has mayors, the mayors achieve good performance indices, measured objectively, therefore they attend to the interest of the local population, even when the local population doesn't know how to assess — people in Brazil don't know how to evaluate, for example, the importance of basic sanitation.
  373. Renan Santos

    27:11

    They don't demand it; 'I want my sanitation.'
  374. Renan Santos

    27:12

    No one complains, also because the work is happening underground.
  375. Renan Santos

    27:15

    And then nobody cares, even with last year's sanitation framework.
  376. Renan Santos

    27:18

    So doing this forces parties to say, 'Hey, I want to put in good mayors who will achieve good performance indicators and thus I have more money to reinvest in more good mayors and quality public administrators.'
  377. Renan Santos

    27:30

    With this incentive system on one hand, and with the punishment that the local political leader and the party cannot run in the election, including being made ineligible for eight years in that municipality, we start to rebalance things.
  378. Renan Santos

    27:41

    We establish objective evaluation criteria.
  379. Renan Santos

    27:43

    And we begin to size that up.
  380. Renan Santos

    27:44

    The need for amendments, the role of federal deputies and the role of political parties.
  381. Renan Santos

    27:49

  382. Renan Santos

    27:53

    What's the difference between PSD, PP, União Brasil and NDB?
  383. Renan Santos

  384. Desconhecido

    27:58

    Popular representation... As it is, it would stay the same.
  385. Renan Santos

    28:02

    Of course, you vote in the election.
  386. Renan Santos

    28:04

    What happens is a mayor stays four years in the municipality, takes it with 2% sewage coverage and leaves it with 2% sewage or potable water, and the population re-elects him because they are so poor they have normalized the absurd.
  387. Renan Santos

    28:19

    And then that mayor has no obligation to increase economic activity in that municipality, none; he keeps his hand out begging for money from the Municipal Participation Fund, the money arrives... He does nothing useful, he puts on the famous Wesley Safadão or Natanzinho show in the municipality, puts his crew in city hall, co-opts the people, does Caixa 2 with money diverted from amendments that are in the order of over 60 million, and the game goes on and he is re-elected.
  388. Renan Santos

    28:41

    When we go to the small city halls of the poorest places in Brazil, we see this.
  389. Renan Santos

    28:45

    Why is the mayor who doesn't improve any basic indicator re-elected?
  390. Renan Santos

    28:48

    The mayor, therefore, is not fulfilling his constitutional role of addressing the population's demands.
  391. Renan Santos

    28:53

    And the population doesn't know how to evaluate.
  392. Renan Santos

    28:55

    We are going to need to help the population evaluate in some way.
  393. Renan Santos

    28:57

    And those objective criteria must be present in this.
  394. Renan Santos

    29:00

    Unless we accept things as they are.
  395. Renan Santos

    Fine, I'll watch Maranhão forever, with no streets, no sewage and very low economic activity.
  396. Renan Santos

  398. Renan Santos

  399. Renan Santos

    29:11

    So a reform has to go through this.
  400. Renan Santos

    29:12
