President Jair Bolsonaro (no party) today took advantage of his day off the coast of São Paulo, where he will spend the New Year with his family, to take a walk on the beach. On a sunny day in Baixada Santista, he walked on the sand and stopped to say hello and chat with the fans.
The presence of the ruler in the place attracted dozens of people and caused agglomerations. A grid had to be installed to establish a minimum distance from the popular ones.

Dressed in the Santos shirt, Bolsonaro approached the public and, without a mask, interacted with hugs and handshakes. The president commented on the scene live broadcast through his social networks. “People are here on the beach. Many will say that there is an agglomeration, but as I said at the beginning … We have to face [a pandemia]. Caring for the elderly, who have comorbidity … And it touches life ”.
“We do that there [interage com apoiadores]. You take a little risk too, right? To see what happens. What do you have to say … Some even complain, right? It is your right. But we have always done it and we will be with the population. Because here, serving the people is our obligation. “
During the walk, Bolsonaro mourned the death of the corporal of the São Paulo Military Police Diogo Gomes de Melo, 31, who drowned while trying to save four children who were in the Itanhaém Sea, off the coast of São Paulo , yesterday afternoon. The prime minister was off duty.
The president also revealed that he is making contact with his family to go to the police funeral this afternoon. Planalto has not officially confirmed whether Bolsonaro will actually attend or not.
“His gesture seems instinctive. A great loss for all of us, for our Military Police. I’m sorry for what happened. This afternoon I must go to his funeral. We are making contacts with the family. It is our life. Really, a hero, right? He gave his life for the lives of some children who bathed in that place. “

Bolsonaro said he felt accused by “some” who, according to him, “forget until we are finishing an atypical year.” “I know that many charge and want something better,” he said.
The criticisms that the president referred to are largely from his followers on social networks.
“Some even forget that we are ending an atypical year, where we are in more than R $ 700 billion in debt to contain the pandemic, to give emergency aid to those who have lost everything.”
In the government’s version, the debts that the government was forced to pay to provide emergency aid, financial aid given to people whose income was affected by the pandemic, would make the renewal of aid unviable.
“They want us to renew, but our borrowing capacity has reached its limit.”
