247 – Report on the Brazilian political landscape published in Financial Times This points to the economic threat the country faces due to what the British newspaper calls "delayed steps in the fight against corruption."

The article, illustrated with a photo of Senator Aécio Neves (PSDB-MG), highlights that the impunity shown to the politician in the Senate this week reveals that "things may not have changed as much as people expected."

The newspaper recalls that Aécio was caught on a phone call asking for a bribe of R$ 2 million from businessman Joesley Batista, of JBS. And that he was punished by the Supreme Federal Court with removal from office and a nightly curfew.

But, inexplicably, it decided to give the final say to the Senate in deciding whether he should be suspended. The Senate, which is already overwhelmed with people also under investigation, decided to keep Mr. Neves," the FT continues.

The report doesn't mention Temer, but the mastermind behind the presidency is another politician who, after orchestrating the coup against Dilma Rousseff, is about to escape – based on the votes of other corrupt individuals – the second indictment presented by the Attorney General's Office.
