Aécio: "Politics is not above humanitarian issues"
"If, as it seems there is, the health of Congressman José Genoino has worsened, may he recover, whether in the hospital or under house arrest. It seems to me, therefore, a correct decision that deserves all our respect," said the national president of the PSDB, Senator Aécio Neves; Genoino suffered a minor heart attack on Thursday afternoon (21).
247 - Senator Aécio Neves, national president of the PSDB, agreed with the granting of house arrest to federal deputy José Genoino (PT), convicted in Criminal Action 470, who suffered a minor heart attack on the afternoon of this Thursday (21).

The politician stated that "in a matter of this complexity and gravity, the political issue cannot be placed above the humanitarian issue." "If, as seems to be the case, the health of Congressman José Genoino is worsening, may he recover, whether in the hospital or under house arrest. It seems to me, therefore, a correct decision that deserves all our respect," he pointed out.
