Good afternoon, Monique.
It's very good to be here with you.
Excellent.
Let's go.
At your disposal.
Desconhecido
Let's go, Governor.
Desconhecido
You are the one who now begins a trajectory as a pre-candidate for the Republic and no longer as governor.
Desconhecido
And I want to start by asking you whether you are leaving the government of Minas Gerais satisfied with your administration.
Monique, yes and no.
And I'll explain why.
- Neutral
About: balance public accounts
Being governor of Minas, which is a state that still faces many financial difficulties and has a gigantic debt, is a great frustration.
- For
About: increase implementation of public projects in Minas Gerais
I would have liked to have carried out 5,000 projects in Minas; maybe I managed 2,000.
That leaves me frustrated and, in a way, disappointed.
But previous governments managed to do 300.
So when I compare myself with the past, I am satisfied; I am very happy with the advances we had.
But when I compare with what I would really like to have done, I get frustrated.
- For
About: balance public accounts
But I handed over to the new governor now, Matheus Simões, a state with the accounts in order.
and not a state that didn't pay payroll, didn't pay the 13th salary, didn't make transfers to municipalities, that didn't pay suppliers.
Everything up to date.
- For
About: complete ongoing state public works
What was also, Monique, a great graveyard of abandoned, unfinished, vandalized works has been transformed either into completed and already delivered projects, or into works in progress.
- For
About: increase investment in public infrastructure
At this moment, Monique, we have in progress in Minas Gerais the largest construction program in history.
- Neutral
About: complete ongoing state public works
The Metropolitan Rodoanel, the expansion of the Belo Horizonte metro, the duplication (road widening) of Belo Horizonte–Ouro Preto, duplication (road widening) of Belo Horizonte–Brumadinho, two bridges over the São Francisco River in the north of the state.
All of this and much more with funds already deposited in specific accounts so that these works can be completed.
- For
About: complete ongoing state public works
That is, regardless of election or crisis in Brazil, the people of Minas will have these works delivered in the coming years.
- For
About: invest in long-term projects for the development of Minas Gerais
I always say that my government, Monique, was a government that, besides planting beans, rice and soy, which you harvest quickly.
We planted much more in Minas: mahogany, eucalyptus and olive trees, which you will continue harvesting in 5, 10, 15 years.
So I leave satisfied, yes.
- Neutral
About: promote economic growth in Minas Gerais
Minas has been growing more than Brazil.
- For
About: create formal jobs
One billion formal jobs (with signed work cards) created during my administration.
- Neutral
About: promote an agenda of privatizations and reforms
And today Minas has definitively left behind a vicious cycle and is experiencing a virtuous cycle.
Desconhecido
Governor, part of your frustration comes from self-pressure and self-criticism.
Desconhecido
Do you demand a lot from yourself?
Desconhecido
Do you think this is an important characteristic for a political office, especially in the executive?
I'm very demanding of myself.
- For
About: bring the state's accounts up to date
Even what led me into politics, Monique, was this dissatisfaction, this indignation with the PT, which had the worst administration in the history of Minas Gerais.
- For
About: bring the state's accounts up to date
Former governor Fernando Pimentel ruined our state.
- For
About: ensure timely payroll payments and transfers to municipalities
From 2015 to 2018, he managed to stop... All the projects I inherited, abandoned, vandalized, he managed to delay the payment of everything.
- For
About: join the fiscal recovery regime to renegotiate the state's debt
He created a monumental debt, including with the municipalities.
- Neutral
About: manage the state responsibly to avoid municipal collapse
Remember, Monique, that here in Minas during the PT era we had mayors who resigned, who fell ill and even who committed suicide.
How do you manage a city without receiving what the city is entitled to, which are the ICMS, the IPVA, the funds for education and health?
