Improved institutional relationship
Kassab highlighted that Lula’s relationship with the Federal Supreme Court and the Public Ministry is “institutional and better than the previous government”.
He characterized the past government’s interaction with these institutions as “almost a warlike relationship”, contrasting with the current approach, which he considers more constructive.
The PSD president also commented on the economic scenario, attributing part of the current success to favorable economic factors. “The economy is doing well, inflation is contained, jobs are increasing, interest rates have fallen”, observed Kassab.
However, he warned of less optimistic future prospects highlighted by economic analysts. According to Kassab, there are concerns regarding inflation, employment and fiscal balance in the long term, indicating that these are the main economic challenges that Brazil currently faces.
