Brasilia, February 10 (RHC)-- Former Brazilian president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva expressed this Wednesday that he will dialogue with different sectors of the people to rebuild Brazil, in the context of the new revelations that ratify that there was a parliamentary coup d'état against his colleague in the struggle, former president Dilma Rousseff.

"I want to talk to everyone.  I will talk to the worker and the boss.  I will talk to the banker and the bank worker, the rural worker and the farmer.  I will talk to everyone to rebuild this country that was destroyed after the coup against Dilma," he said on his Twitter account.

The former president and pre-candidate for the 2022 presidential elections, referred to several issues, including the need to generate more jobs, with better wages to reduce income inequality in Brazil.  "We have already done that.  And we are going to make the Brazilian economy grow again.  Generating jobs for Brazilians is an obsession of mine," he said.

In turn, he specified that what generates real employment is the dynamism of the economy.  "People need to have resources, people need to buy, then commerce will sell and industry will produce," commented Lula, for whom the solution to the country is to include people in the budget.

"I already had the experience of being unemployed for a year and a half.  It is a hard life and you begin to lose your moral authority", he added, to explain what employment represents for the maintenance of the country, based on his own experience.

The leader of the Workers' Party (PT) criticized Bolsonaro's disrespect for governors and northeasterners.  "When I was president, I respected every governor and mayor, because they were also elected," he pointed out.

Similarly, he criticized him for his stance in favor of deforestation and said that if he continues to disrespect the environment, it will be more difficult liego to export, because it is an environmental and economic obligation to take care of the forest.

The PT pre-candidate continues to lead the polls of voting intentions in the country and could be the winner in a first round against Bolsonaro or other contenders.  Lula stressed that if he becomes president, he would change the neoliberal fuel price policy that currently prevails.

"It is not possible that the country that discovered the largest oil reserves of the 21st century is importing gasoline. We have to be refined. What is happening with this current Petrobras policy? We are exporting crude oil and importing gasoline from the United States in dollars," he stressed.

The popular leader of the South American giant reiterated that he is motivated because he has a cause which is to make Brazilians eat, work, study and smile again.
