In an interview with CNN Brasil, Senator Renan Calheiros (MDB-AL), rapporteur for the Covid CPI in the Senate, stated that he declined an invitation from former prisoner Lula (PT) for a meeting in Brasília this week.
The PT member began, this Monday (03), a tour of Brasília-DF with the aim of meeting with political leaders — mainly those linked to the parties of the so-called “Centrão”.
“I told him [Lula] that there would be no point in talking now, just as it is not advisable for me to talk to [President Jair] Bolsonaro,” the senator told CNN Brasil.
According to Renan, “the [CPI] rapporteur must be impartial and unbiased.” Lula’s advisors chose not to comment on the parliamentarian’s statements.
