Minister Ricardo Lewandowski, of the Federal Supreme Court (STF), gave the third vote against the possibility of selling Petrobras refineries without authorization from the National Congress, this Thursday afternoon.
Even so, the STF’s score was momentarily four votes in favor, compared to three against the operation.
Until that moment, the ministers Alexandre de Moraes, Luís Roberto Barroso, Dias Toffoli and Cármen Lúcia voted in favor of the divestment; against, in addition to Lewandowski, the case reporter, Edson Fachin, and Rosa Weber.
In his vote, Lewandowski spoke in favor of suspending operations because he understands that there are possibilities of “misuse of purpose” in operations. He said a careful evaluation of the case is needed.
“There is no need for a specific law to create subsidiaries, but what if subsidiaries are created to divide the parents? What would it be like? I am not saying that this is what is happening, but we have to find out,” he said.
“It is appropriate to give due disclosure to the line of argument formulated by the Tables of the National Congress, the Senate and the Chamber of Deputies,” he reinforced, positioning himself in the cessation of operations.
The action analyzed by the STF was filed by the parliamentary bodies.
