The new power of Brazil began to clean up civil servants with left -handed views

The new Brazilian government intends to dismiss high -ranking civil servants who adhere to left -wing views, said the head of the Presidential Civil Chancellery, Onyx Lorenzoni to reporters on January 3.

“There is no point in remaining, quoting him TASS.“ We have enough courage to do what the government, which left December 31, has not decided, that is, from the very beginning to conduct a “general cleaning”.

“Because this is the only way to put our ideas into life and to do what most of the Brazilian society voted for - to stop the socialist and communist ideas that have led us to today's chaos in 30 years,” Lorenzoni emphasized.

On the same day, the official publication of the Brazilian government Diario OFICIAL published a presidential decree on the dismissal of more than 300 employees of the Civil Chancellery of the Head of State.

If one of them wants to return and work with the new government, he will have to interview to confirm both professional qualifications and a coincidence in political views with the newly-minted leadership of the country. Depending on the information received, a decision will be made on the further career of each employees, Lorenzoni explained.

“All ministries received permission to act in a similar way,” added the head of the President’s Civil Chancellery. At the same time, he assured that the proposed practice is not a "witch hunt."

“In order not to hunt witch, we first remove them from the post, and then talk,” Lorenzoni explained. “We will cleanse Brazil from PT” (Left Party of Workers, which was in power from 2003 to 2016).

Brazil was headed by "Tropical Trump"

On October 28, the second round of the presidential election was held in Brazil, following which the far-right politician Zair Bolsonaru , representing the country's conservative liberal party, won. On January 1, he took office. Its mandate is designed for four years.

The Bolsonaru Copes in the second round - the candidate from the PT Fernande Addad - gained 45%. After the announcement of the preliminary voting results, he stated that he would go to the opposition.

The 63 -year -old Zhir Bolsonaru is the first extreme right politician who came to power after 1985, when the reign of the military junta ended. During the election campaign, Bolsonaru repeatedly stated that US President Donald Trump is his idol and an example to follow. For his extreme right views, he is sometimes called "tropical Trump."

Bolsonaru is known for contemptuous statements against the defenders of women and sexual minorities, as well as insulting immigrants and representatives of national minorities. In particular, in an interview, he stated that a woman should receive a lesser salary than a man, because he could get pregnant and go on maternity leave.

Bolsonaru also advocates the cancellation of restrictions on free possession of firearms and has repeatedly expressed in defense of the military dictatorship. At the same time, many supporters of Bolsonaru consider him the savior of the country, and are convinced that he will ensure the safety of Brazil, support traditional values, and will also oppose the legalization of abortion.
