Hello, good morning, welcome — whether you're female or male — to yet another Sabatina promoted by UOL and Folha de São Paulo, this partnership for Brazilian democracy and the 2026 elections.
Desconhecido
As you know, our mission here is to help you choose who you want at the helm of Brazil for the next four years.
Desconhecido
We invited all the pre-candidates, the candidates for the Presidency of the Republic, to take part in this Sabatina.
Desconhecido
And our candidate today... Today it's Renan Santos, the Missão candidate.
Desconhecido
He is the founder of the Movimento Brasil Livre.
Desconhecido
Renan is 42 years old, is a businessman and the current president of the Missão party, the ticket under which he is running.
Desconhecido
the Presidency of the Republic.
Desconhecido
In the latest poll of voting intentions, he appears with 4% of the vote intentions, technically tied with Ronaldo Caiado; the Meio & Ideia poll was published just yesterday.
Desconhecido
Ahead of them are Augusto Cury, with 6.6%, Flávio Bolsonaro, 37.3%, and Lula, with 38.4%.
Desconhecido
Renan has already lived in Moca, a very traditional neighborhood in São Paulo's East Zone; he enrolled in the Law School at USP but did not finish the course.
Desconhecido
He was affiliated with PSDB; he has a history in Brazilian politics — he was affiliated with PSDB between 2010 and 2015 — but he gained more prominence in politics in 2014 when, alongside Kim Kataguiri, he founded the Movimento Brasil Livre.
Desconhecido
the well-known MBL.
Desconhecido
The movement gained a lot of visibility across Brazil by organizing demonstrations in defense of Operation Lava Jato against Dilma's government.
Desconhecido
He was also one of those responsible for organizing what became known as the Impeachment Committee, which carried forward the process of removing the then-president.
Desconhecido
And today it is he who wants to hold that office — he who wants the Presidency of the Republic.
Desconhecido
With me in this interview, my daily partner Josias de Souza, live from Brasília, and here by my side, Bruno Ribeiro, from the newspaper Folha de São Paulo.
Desconhecido
Hello, Josias, good morning to you.
Desconhecido
Very good morning, good morning to you, Fabíola, good morning to Bruno, a special good morning to candidate Renan Santos — let's go.
Desconhecido
Good morning, Bruno.
Desconhecido
Good morning, Fabíola.
Desconhecido
All right, candidate, a very warm welcome to you here in our UOL studio, good morning, sir.
Good morning, Fabíola.
Good morning, Bruno.
Good morning, Josias.
People I associate with.
It will be a pleasure to have a chat with you.
It'll be really nice.
Desconhecido
Let's go: it's a 50-minute interview, we'll finish with a rapid-fire round and then there will be two minutes for final considerations.
Desconhecido
We'll start the timer at the beginning of your first answer.
Desconhecido
Well, we're following this war at the STF (Supreme Federal Tribunal), in flames less than a month from the elections.
Desconhecido
We're less than a month, three weeks away from the elections, and that's what everyone is talking about.
Desconhecido
To what extent will this crisis at the STF (Supreme Federal Tribunal) affect voters' choices?
Desconhecido
affect the Brazilian electoral process.
Desconhecido
What do you think, sir?
Look, I expected it to be having more of an effect.
I even have a few rants, a few acts of brutal honesty in the past few days, because this is the strangest election since 2010.
2010 was an election very empty of political debate; it was an election in which Serra wanted to present himself as Lula's candidate.
The big event of the election was a small paper ball that was thrown at Serra's head.
And there weren't major discussions, there wasn't much debate.
From the 14th onward, that which we call polarization rises, there's a greater politicization of the debate.
