Brazil must ‘stop being a fag country’ and face an ‘open chest’ pandemic, says Bolsonaro | Politics

“Everything is now a pandemic,” Bolsonaro complained during a speech at the Planalto Palace, at a launch ceremony for a tourism program.

Earlier on Tuesday, the media consortium reported that Brazil reached 162,600 deaths from Covid-19, a disease caused by the new coronavirus, and 5.67 million confirmed cases.

“There is no use running away from her, fleeing from reality. It has to stop being a country of ladybugs. See what plate full for the press. Full plate for the vulture back there. We have to face it with an open chest, fight. What generation is it? this ours? “

The president said he regretted the deaths and reiterated that the fate of anyone is death.

“Emergency aid ends in December. How invisible are those nearly 40 million? They lost everything now. The can collector had no can to pick up on the street, there was no way to sell Globo cookies on the beach, there was no way to sell mate in the football stadium. Now everything is a pandemic. You have to end this business, damn it. Sorry for the dead, sorry, but we are all going to die one day.

Since the beginning of the pandemic, Bolsonaro has often made statements that contradict science. He has always spoken out in favor of commercial openness and against wearing the mask.

The president also usually promotes events that generate overcrowding, another situation that, according to health authorities, can help spread the new coronavirus even more.

During his speech, Bolsonaro said that his life “is a shame, it is a problem all the time.” The president also said he has no peace “for absolutely nothing” and complained about the press coverage.

“Guys, we have to look for changes, we will not have another chance. The group will say ‘we want a center’, neither hate there nor hate here. Hate is a queer thing, damn it. My bullying time at school was bad “declared.

At the same event on Tuesday, Bolsonaro said that “when you run out of saliva, you have to have gunpowder” when referring to the Amazon.

Still as a candidate, the president-elect of the United States, Joe Biden, said that he will seek “to organize the hemisphere and the world to provide 20,000 million dollars for the Amazon.” He also said that Brazil could face “significant economic consequences” if it does not stop “destroying” the forest.

Bolsonaro, without mentioning Biden’s name, declared Tuesday on the Plateau:

“We have just seen a great candidate for head of state say that if I don’t put out the fire in the Amazon, he will raise trade barriers against Brazil. And how can we deal with all this? Right Ernesto? When you run out of saliva you have to have gunpowder, otherwise it doesn’t work. You don’t even have to use gunpowder, but you have to know you have it. This is the world. Nobody has what we have. ”

In a debate with the opposition Donald Trump, a candidate for re-election, during the election campaign, Biden stated:

“Brazil, the Brazilian rainforest, is being demolished, it is being destroyed. More carbon is absorbed in that rainforest than every bit of carbon that is emitted in the United States. Instead of doing something about it … I’d get together and make sure the countries of the world put in $ 20 billion and say, ‘Here’s $ 20 billion. Stop, stop cutting down the forest, and if you don’t, you will have significant financial consequences. ”

Bolsonaro has publicly stated several times that he supports Trump’s reelection. The president even said he would be in possession of an American colleague for the second term.
