Marcos Rogério: But today we have another situation: this barricade, this barrier is also a barrier of a criminal culture.
Marcos Rogério: The child who is the son of a resident of a condominium, of a neighborhood, and who wants to study at the school that is in the neighboring district, faces a virtual barrier, which is a command that says: "The child from that neighborhood or the child from that condominium does not study here, because this is territory dominated by the rival faction."
Mr. President, we are faced with a situation, a scenario in which the diagnosis is simple: the State ceased to occupy its space, failed to promote the most appropriate public policies — and I am not speaking only of public security policy, because that is the last trench of confrontation — because the State became absent.
Marcos Rogério: And who occupied that space? Organized crime.
Marcos Rogério: And so we are today faced with what we call narcoterrorism: criminal organizations that have established themselves, become interconnected, centralized their leadership, and today are in the four corners of Brazil, terrorizing society.
