    It's a pleasure to be here with you.
  4. Romeu Zema
    Well, this news has been circulated many times already, but I want to emphasize that first I feel very honored, very flattered.

    This ends up being a recognition of our administration in Minas Gerais.

  8. Romeu Zema
    For

    About: conduct the pre-campaign and campaign until the end

    First, Thaís, there was no formal invitation, and there probably won't be one, because I have always stressed that I will take my pre-campaign and campaign through to the end.
  9. Romeu Zema
    For

    About: defend proposals of Partido Novo

    I, Partido Novo, have different proposals.
    Political Ideology →
  10. Romeu Zema
    Brazil needs a good shake-up.
  11. Romeu Zema
    Generally, in the private sector, when a company is doing poorly, bring in someone from the outside, someone who thinks differently.
  12. Romeu Zema
    Because those who are inside are already, in a way, cultured.
  13. Romeu Zema
    Most of them think the same way.
  14. Romeu Zema
    And we are seeing it.
  15. Romeu Zema
    Brazil, it seems to me, is entering a third decade of scandals.
  16. Romeu Zema
    We had scandals in the 2000s, in the 2010s and now in the 2020s.
  17. Romeu Zema
    It is worth remembering here Mensalão, Petrolão, the Pasadena refinery, Abreu e Lima, the Money Suitcase, Impeachment, Lava Jato and now the scandal of the old men and also Banco Master.
  18. Romeu Zema
    Will our children continue watching the same soap opera?
  19. Romeu Zema
    a different record.
  20. Romeu Zema
    For

    About: promote political renewal and alternation of leadership

    and for me the time has come for Brazil to have this turnaround, for someone to oxygenate this system that in my opinion is more than bankrupt.
    Political Renewal → View this statement
  21. Desconhecido

    Governor, very good morning, welcome to our program.
  22. Desconhecido

    There have been some videos in recent days that went viral, one of them showing you leaving your workplace for the last time, leaving, turning off the light.
  23. Desconhecido

    By the way, you were even able to turn off the power, because when you arrived to take office there wasn't even electricity to turn on.
  24. Desconhecido

    And later you were there driving... resuming this habit of driving your own car, etc.
  25. Desconhecido

    In the words of former president Fernando Henrique Cardoso, it's the reunion with the doorknob.
  26. Desconhecido

    He said that during eight years as president he couldn't open a door, because there was always someone who opened it, and after his term ended he reunited with the doorknob.
  27. Desconhecido

    I wanted you to talk a little about this new time in your life.
  28. Romeu Zema
    Cláudio, everyone is saying that my face looks better.
  29. Romeu Zema
    Since Sunday.
  30. Romeu Zema
    And I who have always had a lot of tension in my shoulder, in my neck, I feel that this tension has improved a lot, which always bothered me.
  31. Romeu Zema
    It is certainly due to this change.
  32. Romeu Zema
    And I who spent my life traveling through the interior of Minas, in 30 years, Cláudio, I drove more than 2 million kilometers.
  33. Romeu Zema
    to be able to make the company present in 470 cities.
  34. Romeu Zema
    So for me, carrying the suitcase, arriving at the hotel... Doing everything is nothing new.
  35. Romeu Zema
    And as governor, also for security protocol reasons, I, in order not to create any problem for the team, am very disciplined, I complied.
  36. Romeu Zema
    They told me I was one of the best-behaved governors in that regard.
  37. Romeu Zema
    But I am here with a new life, very satisfied, wanting to show Brazil, Cláudio, that it is possible to do politics differently.
  38. Romeu Zema
    For

    About: combat corruption and practices of political clientelism

    In these almost seven and a half years that I led Minas Gerais, we had no corruption, we had no scandal.
  39. Romeu Zema
    I say that when someone does public management, simply by not leaving things until they get... close to the chicken coop, the difference is already very large, Cláudio.
  40. Romeu Zema
    And I think that was proven by my reelection, by my approval in Minas, despite it being a broken State.
