Yesterday, President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva invited the President of the Chamber of Deputies, Arthur Lira, for breakfast. With my bags ready to enjoy the chill of Brejo Paraibano during this period, I can't wait to enjoy a typical breakfast in that region, on the porches of an inn, facing the mountains, listening to the singing of nightingales, meadow roosters, canários da terra, sanhaçus. Regional coffee, with couscous, coalho cheese, sugar mill honey and a very strong coffee, with beans produced right there. It is said that José Américo de Almeida, on purpose, postponed the conclusion of the novel A Bagaceira, just to stay a few more days in those corners of the swamp, following the routine of the old sugar mills, today dedicated to the production of cachaça.
The breakfast between Lula and Lira, unfortunately, does not have such characteristics, in the face of a completely turbid political environment in Brasilia, with quarrels and resentments on both sides. The tune of the centrão everyone knows by heart and sautéed: positions and release of amendments. In fact, they are even creating their own mechanism for managing these amendments, without necessarily involving the Executive. The adjustment of positions in the machine, on the other hand, remains, with Lula being restricted to making spaces for former political enemies, from parties traditionally opposed to PTism, creating edges with his allied base and his closest political group.
Heads are likely to roll as a result of the conversations held between the two. The Centrão tries to make a government inside the PT, either by creating mechanisms of interference in the autonomy of the ministries, or by indicating names for the machine that will certainly follow the guidelines of the group and not of the Lula Government, in a kind of four-handed government. Lula needs to be clear about the limits of these concessions.
