Abílio Diniz financed PSL candidates, praised Bolsonaro’s economic policy and defended Dilma Rousseff’s impeachment edit
247 – Shareholder and member of the Carrefour Board of Directors, businessman Abílio Diniz financed the PSL during the 2018 elections. The party launched Jair Bolsonaro as President of the Republic.
Carrefour is involved, once again, in a case of racism, after two security guards in a Porto Alegre supermarket beat João Alberto Silveira Freitas, a 40-year-old black man, to death.
In 2018, Abílio Diniz donated R $ 1.2 million to candidates during the general elections, according to the French daily Libération. In addition to the PSL candidates, the businessman also financed candidates from coup parties such as PSD, DEM and MDB.
At a meeting between Bolsonaro and Fiesp in mid-2020, Diniz even praised the government’s economic policy, according to Folha de S. Paulo.
In addition, in 2018, as soon as Bolsonaro won the elections, the businessman published a “Letter to the President” in the State of São Paulo, stating that the result gave “hope that it is no longer the same, the hope that Brazil will change and it will be a more solidary, united and peaceful country ”.
“The hope of us entrepreneurs is that the barriers that hold back our ability to produce wealth and jobs will be broken down,” he wrote.
Diniz also defended the impeachment of former president Dilma Rousseff (PT), claiming it was a “new fact” that gave “hope to Brazil.”
