Recently, the federal Supreme Court launched a video recording of an April 22 ministerial meeting in which Bolsonaro said he wanted to alter security authorities, their employers and even ministers to stop his household and pals from getting “screwed.”
Bolsonaro stated in the statement on Monday that he anticipates the “matter to be treated with responsibility and serenity.”
