Bahia 247 - Running for re-election, Mayor ACM Neto (DEM) boasts that, according to him, Salvador is the Brazilian capital that has invested the most with its own resources in the last four years.
"I want to remind everyone that four years ago, they said the city couldn't stand on its own two feet, that it was bankrupt," the Democrat told Bahia Notícias, recalling that he was being "persecuted" by the government of then-President-elect Dilma Rousseff.
The mayor hopes things will improve under the interim government of his ally Michel Temer (PMDB), who is presiding over Brazil on an interim basis due to Dilma's removal from office as a result of the impeachment process.
"Of course, our desire, from a second-term perspective, is to incorporate external investments, whether through financing or the release of federal funds, into the package of actions that the city has undertaken in recent years. Unfortunately, I haven't had more because I was persecuted by the federal government. The situation today is different. I think we will be able to move forward on important issues that are being discussed with the World Bank and Caixa Econômica Federal, and we will advance on several requests submitted to Brasília," says ACM Neto.
