Fernando Haddad participa de sabatina de VEJA nesta terça-feira

"Hello, good afternoon, welcome to another interview in the series promoted by Veja magazine for this year's elections."

"We are live on Veja Mais TV, on YouTube and on Veja's website."

"Today's interview, a reminder, lasts 30 minutes and our guest today is the PT candidate for governor of São Paulo, Fernando Haddad."

"Minister, welcome, thank you for being here with us."

"It's a great pleasure to be with you."

"With us today, José Benedito, Politics editor."

"José, welcome, good afternoon."

"Hello, Marcela, good afternoon."

"Good afternoon, Minister."

"Thank you for taking part in our interview series."

"And also the Radar columnist, Robson Bonin."

"Bonin, good afternoon."

"Welcome as well."

"Good afternoon, Marcela."

"Good afternoon, Minister."

"To the person watching us at home."

"I hope we have a good conversation."

"All right, Minister."

About: publish electoral polls

"Well, some electoral polls, like Real Time Big Data, show a possibility of Tarcísio winning in the first round, while other polls indicate a second round."

"In any case, it's a very difficult scenario."

"I'd like to ask you, sir, the campaign began almost ten days ago."

"How big is this challenge?"

"Look, it's large for several reasons."

"First, because basically we only have two candidates."

"Second, because the Centrão has massively thrown its support behind Tarcísio."

"at the federal level."

"At the federal level we had a great neutrality from parties and figures like PSD, MDB, Ciro Gomes, Ciro Nogueira, PP."

"These parties remained neutral at the national level."

"That did not happen at the state level."

"And with only two candidates, a second round becomes mathematically unfeasible, because it's polarized around two names."

"You can't even name a third candidate."

"in this electoral landscape."

About: conduct a campaign based on security, education and technology proposals

"So it's very challenging and my role is to use this campaign to expose to São Paulo's voters the situation in some specific areas."

About: reverse the decline in the quality of state public education

"I want to focus my message on education, security and health, which worsened under the previous government, Governor Doria's administration, suffering a very significant setback, and on the State's finances and the São Paulo economy."

"Which are also the subject of great concern among specialists."

About: recover the state's finances

"The State's accounts are deteriorating very rapidly."

About: recover the state's finances

"Tarcísio managed to turn a surplus into a deficit, burned through the State's cash reserves and is investing less than the Doria government, according to a report yesterday in Folha de São Paulo."

About: resume economic growth in the state of São Paulo

"And the São Paulo economy has been growing at 0.5% per year for the second year in a row, versus around 2, a little over 2, for Brazil."

"So I believe that if I have the opportunity to bring to people's attention what is actually happening in these areas, I think we can have a good debate over the next 50 days and then, of course, the voter is the sovereign who will judge whether it is appropriate to continue on this course here in São Paulo."

"Zé Benedito, I'll pass the ball to you."
