Nós condenamos a suspensão da presidenta do Brasil, Dilma Rousseff. É absolutamente errado que alguns parlamentares pisem sobre a vontade expressa nas urnas por 54 milhões de brasileiros. O novo governo mostrou sua verdadeira expressão ao apontar um ministério apenas masculino e sem representatividade, além de lançar uma política neoliberal que atacará milhões de trabalhadores e pobres. O governo interino não tem direito de implementar políticas contrárias aos programas sociais que tiraram 40 milhões da pobreza. Nos juntamos aos movimentos sociais e políticos progressistas do Brasil, além de grupos ao redor do mundo, condenando essa tentativa de derrubar a democracia brasileira.

On The Guardian

We condemn the suspension of President Dilma Rousseff in Brazil. It is thoroughly wrong that a few parliamentarians trample upon the political will expressed at the ballot box by 54 million Brazilians. The new government has shown its true colours by appointing a non-representative, all-male, cabinet and launching neoliberal policies that will hurt millions of working and poorer people. The interim government has no mandate to implement policies that reverse the social programmes that took 40 million people out of poverty. We join Brazil’s progressive political and social movements, and groups from across global civil society including the trade union movement, in condemning this attempt to overthrow democracy in Brazil.
