- Neutral
Desconhecido
About: concede public services to the private sector
That was the case with the prisons, for example — a case that was even kind of strange, leaving the government's agenda, coming from the government's agenda, privatizations.

Put that on the table for us a bit.

About: privatize state-owned companies
First of all I... There are two ways to privatize, let's say.
There's privatization that is the sale of assets.

All the rivers, for example, right?
Which is the sale of assets.

About: maintain Petrobras as a state-owned company
I think it's a scandal.
And I said that in 2022, in front of Tarcísio, who was ambiguous.
Because he's ambiguous about everything, have you noticed?
You ask him if he's Bolsonaro, he says, 'look', he distances himself from Flávio, he gets closer to Flávio, depending on what suits him.
Are you going to sell this BESP?
I'll look into it.
By the third month the company was already being billed.
Look at what happened to this BESP.

They made so many rules throughout the bidding process that it ended up with one bidder, Equatorial, which wasn't even in the sector.
It wasn't even in the sector.

Which just won in Minas Gerais the... Yeah, just watch.

About: ensure competitive, transparent public procurements
The other two withdrew because of the clauses they kept adding to the tender notice.
About: ensure competitive, transparent public procurements
The two realized that the governor was steering the bidding process.
And they backed out.
EGE, for example, which participated in Rio de Janeiro, won two of the four lots.

It could have entered.
