Lula da Silva celebrating with Dilma Rousseff her reelection back in 2014. Fabio Rodrigues Pozzebom/Agência Brasil. Some rights reserved.
We, Brazilian citizens committed to defending democracy, human rights and the rule of law in our country want to express our indignation with the way the Operation Car Wash has been conducted, and the practice of lawfare, both established under the pretext of combating corruption in Brazil. These practices, permitted by a compromised Brazilian Supreme Court, are being used under a pretense legitimate process.
They are, in fact, leading to the destruction of Brazilian democracy and to maintaining the enactors of a parliamentary, judicial and mediatic coup d’état in office, despite their seizing of power from President-elect Dilma Rousseff.
