After 74 deaths, Bolsonaro says Pazuello is the right man in the right place.
"Pazuello is a predestined man; in difficult times he is always in the right place to best serve his country," Jair Bolsonaro wrote on Facebook.
247 - Jair Bolsonaro spoke out this Wednesday (15) about the tensions surrounding General Eduardo Pazuello's interim role at the head of the Ministry of Health. Since the criticisms made by Supreme Court Justice Gilmar Mendes Regarding the military takeover of the Health Ministry, this is the first time Bolsonaro has spoken about the topic.
Bolsonaro wrote in a tone of support for Pazuello's management, which is responsible for the deaths of 74 Brazilians from Covid-19, and showed no interest in dismissing the general's services, contrary to what the... Armed Forces want.
"Destiny willed that General Pazuello assume the interim position at the Ministry of Health last May. With 5.500 employees in the Ministry, the General brought only 15 military personnel with him to the department. This group had already been with him since before the Rio Olympics. Pazuello is a predestined man; in difficult times he is always in the right place to best serve his country. Our Army is proud of this noble soldier," said Jair Bolsonaro.
