"The challenge now is to recover the economy," says Lula.
"Brazil is much more disorganized than it was in 2003," assessed the former president, who is the favorite to return to power in this year's elections.
247 - Former President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) stated this Wednesday (26) that Brazil “has an atrophied economy and has lost the capacity for investments”. According to him, “the challenge now is to recover the economy”. “We have an atrophied economy. The State does not have the capacity for investment. The State is allowing universities to go bankrupt. The State has reduced the Science and Technology budget almost to zero,” the former president told Rádio CBN Vale do Paraíba.
“I tell everyone that the problem isn’t winning the elections, it’s winning and managing to fix the country. Because Brazil is much more unstructured than in 2003; inflation is higher, the cost of living, unemployment, and wage losses are much greater,” Lula stated.
The former president also stressed that he will focus on the problems and solutions for the country and that he will not get "into the quagmire that some opponents want to turn the debate into." "What I want to know is who will solve the problems of employment, the economy, the country's credibility in the world, the educational setbacks for children due to the pandemic. That's what I'm going to debate," he stated.
