PT will still take legal action against Campos Neto; the expectation is for the end of the Selic cuts and criticism of the “politicization” of the BC president
O PT (Workers’ Party) announced this Tuesday (June 18, 2024) that the federal deputy and national president of the party, Gleisi Hoffmann (PR) will make a live with the president of IBGE (Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics), Marcio Pochmannon Wednesday night (June 19).
The broadcast of “Conexões do Brasil”, the party’s weekly panel on YouTubewill be held at 7pm, that is, after the announcement by the Copom (Monetary Policy Committee), by the BC (Central Bank), on the basic interest rate, the Selic – which should be released around 6pm.
Gleisi and Pochmann must reinforce the PT offensive of criticism of the president of the monetary authority, Roberto Campos Neto, because of the cycle of cuts in the level.

The PT will also take legal action against the president of the BC on the date on which the Selic rate will be announced. In the last announcement, the monetary entity reduced the rate by 0.25 pp (percentage point) – after months of successive cuts of 0.5 pp. The cycle of cuts is expected to end.
LULA CRITICIZES CAMPOS NETO
Earlier, the president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) also did reviews to the performance of Campos Neto. Said he “has a political side“ is that “works much more to harm than to help the country”. Lula also said that there is no need for Selic to remain at its current level and defended new cuts.
PT’s Communications Secretary, federal deputy Jilmar Tatto (SP), asked Campos Neto to resign and said he “has always made a point of showing that he is an agent of Bolsonarism and the interests of speculative capital“ is that “participating in political acts is an affront to the Brazilian people and the supposed autonomy of the BC”.
Last week, the BC president participated in a dinner hosted in his honor by the governor of São Paulo, Tarcísio de Freitas (Republicans). Members of the financial market and former authorities of the former president’s government were present Jair Bolsonaro (PL).
