Samara Martins: So, we have understood, including in the defense of the sovereignty and independence of our country, that privatizations should not occur.
Samara Martins: And in the candidate's program there is a strong defense of privatizations; he has even defended this with great conviction.
In fact, I am from Minas Gerais and my family lives in Minas Gerais, and this issue of privatizations, including Copasa, my father is a Copasa worker.
Samara Martins: This is a surrender of our sovereignty, especially because a large part of these privatizations is carried out for foreign companies.
Samara Martins: And having in the hands of other countries central matters, strategic minerals, strategic wealth for our country, is not defending sovereignty; it is not defending the economic independence of our country.
