"At the signing of the Paris Agreement, what existed was climate denialism, which we overcame. At COP-26, it is necessary to overcome climate fatalism, the feeling that there is no way out." | Read the interview with Trustee Izabella Teixeira here.
"Unlike Kohl and two other iconic postwar prime ministers, Merkel doesn't leave an obvious, compact legacy that can be synthesized in a single stroke." | Read Trustee Demetrio Magnoli's article here.
"The key is missing: that the people press for their rights, that they fulfill their duties and, above all, that the elite look around and become aware that, with so much inequality, national prosperity disappears in the suburbs and countryside. What exists needs to expand, otherwise we will continue to be what we have always been: a country of the future, but whose reach depends on having the necessary awareness of how much more we need to be truly "modern", that is, more egalitarian." | Read Honorary President Fernando Henrique Cardoso's article here.
"I'm not trying to mask the situation, but we have to be confident in restoring and highlighting the positive aspects that make us sure that we will overcome this phase and reactivate the belief in our future." | Read the article by Trustee Emeritus Roberto Teixeira da Costa here.
"Energy is the basis of all economic activity. Its scarcity affects the production and transportation of food, raw materials and finished products. An energy clash between the pandemic and COP-26 (UN climate conference, next month in Glasgow) was exactly what the world did not need." | Read Senior Fellow Lourival Sant'Anna's article here.
"The 7th of September created something that Brazil needs more and more, the unity between ministers in their defense of Brazil's key institutions. Divergence is needed in votes and interpretations. Convergence in the decision to defend the institution. And this decision marked a clear path in the direction of unity from the Supreme Court." | Listen to the interview with Trustee Joaquim Falcão here.
"In an interview with Jornal da CBN, economist and former president of the Central Bank, Arminio Fraga, analyzes the Brazilian situation. For him, political instability has deepened the economic crisis, which is now also aggravated by the pandemic. Fraga also assesses that the current situation reinforces the importance of investing in the Brazilian public health system (SUS) and in education." | Listen to the interview with Trustee Arminio Fraga here.
"In an interview with Jornal da CBN, the former governor of Espírito Santo argued that authorities need to put aside next year's election and focus on citizen care. Paulo Hartung also stated that the complicated Brazilian situation depends on the choices made by government officials, who generally choose the easiest path. He cited the environment as an example and highlighted that the country could be a leader in these discussions." | Listen to the interview with Trustee Paulo Hartung here.
"'America First' is not the exclusive flag of one president, whether Democrat or Republican. it is about the imperative of objective interests materializing before our eyes." | Read Senior Fellow Fernanda Magnotta's article here.
