Environment without powers

Marina Silva stated that she will try to reverse the dehydration imposed by Congress on the Ministry of the Environment, but admitted that the moment is difficult. “It is not an easy situation to manage, because the government does not have a majority within Congress,” she said. According to Marina, the National Congress imposes a contradiction on the government, since, in her understanding, the Executive prioritizes the environmental area, while the Legislature worked to dismantle this policy.

Collor sentenced

The Federal Supreme Court (STF) sentenced this Thursday (25) the former president and former senator Fernando Collor de Mello for the crimes of passive corruption and money laundering. The case is an offshoot of Operation Lava Jato. Initially, in the Public Ministry's complaint, Collor was accused of receiving R$29,9 million in bribes for business with BR Distribuidora, a subsidiary of Petrobras in the sale of fuels. However, for ministers, the bribe would be R$20 million. According to the complaint, filed in 2015, payments were made between 2010 and 2014 in businesses involving the subsidiary, which at the time had two directors appointed by the senator. (g1)

Racism in Spain

Javier Tebas, president of LaLiga, held a press conference to comment on the racist attacks against Brazilian Vinícius Júnior, from Real Madrid. He called for changes to Spanish law so that the entity has the power to punish cases of racism and defends the loss of points as a form of punishment for clubs. If the law had been in force, Valencia would not have been saved from relegation. “We are responsible for the fans from the moment they leave home to watch the game until they reach the stadium. If he shouts racist things, we must intervene”, said the president of the Spanish Championship. (Estadão) 🚥
