247 - The debate over whether or not to pardon the PT (Workers' Party), which is intense on social media after the publication of an article in the newspaper O Globo defending this thesis, changes nothing for the party.

"The PT is not asking for forgiveness and does not need forgiveness," says the party's president, Gleisi Hoffmann. "The PT needs justice, for Lula and for all the persecution the party has suffered."

Gleisi says that the PT “debates politics. And politics is not a matter of forgiveness, but of positioning,” she informs. Monica Bergamo in his column in Folha de S.Paulo.
