Lula indicates to allies the appointment of General Amaro in the GSI – 04/27/2023 – Politics
[ad_1]
President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) said in a meeting with ministers this Thursday morning (27) that he should nominate General Marcos Antonio Amaro to head the GSI (Institutional Security Office).
If confirmed, the military will take the place of General Gonçalves Dias, who resigned as head of the portfolio after the release of images of the security circuit of the Planalto Palace recorded during the coup attacks on January 8.
Amaro has a close relationship with former president Dilma Rousseff (PT). Ties with the former president were created when the general took over the Presidential Security Secretariat in 2010 —a role he held for five years.
The general also participated in the process of creating the Casa Militar, in 2015, being appointed head of the body by Dilma. He left office after the impeachment process against the president.
Lula met Amaro last Thursday (20), shortly before leaving for Europe. The conversation lasted less than 10 minutes and the president said he would look for him again when he returned from his trip.
The new meeting, however, has not yet taken place.
Amaro indicated in conversations with allies that he will defend the return of Abin and the president’s security command to the GSI, if he is chosen to head the body. If the portfolio continues to be emptied, there are doubts as to whether he would be willing to assume the post.
