RIO – The Minister of the Environment, Ricardo Salles, called the president of the Chamber of Deputies, Rodrigo Maia, of Nhonho in a post on social media Wednesday night.
The comment was made in a post Maia made on Saturday. In it, the mayor criticized Salles: “Minister Ricardo Salles, not satisfied with destroying Brazil’s environment, has now decided to destroy the government itself.”
Nhonho is the name of a character in the “Turma do Chaves” series and is how the ideological wing of Bolsonaro’s supporters pejoratively calls the mayor.
Maia’s publication was made in the middle of a fight between the ideological and military wing of the government, exposed after Ricardo Salles’ social media attack on Luiz Eduardo Ramos, last Thursday.
The “struggle” began after the publication of a note by GLOBO columnist Bela Megale, with a message sent by the Minister of the Environment to his government colleague, the Chief Minister of the Secretary of Government, Luiz Eduardo Ramos. On Twitter, Salles said “he has enormous respect and appreciation for the military institution” and that the general should put aside the “position of #mariafofoca.”
The president of the Senate, Davi Alcolumbre (DEM-AP), also defended the minister of the Government Secretariat. In a post on Twitter, Alcolumbre highlighted the importance of Ramos for the government’s institutional relationship with Congress and highlighted Environment Minister Ricardo Salles, saying that “it is not healthy” for a minister to publicly offend a colleague.
“Without going into the merits of the issue, I make two reservations.1 As head of the Legislative Assembly, I note the importance of @MinLuizRamos in the institutional relationship with Congress.2. It is not healthy for a minister to publicly offend another minister. and it hurts Brazil, ”Alcolumbre wrote.
However, the posts generated negative responses from government opponents.
