Introduction Often, a false narrative is born from a distortion of a real speech by personalities. For some time now, a video of President Lula has been circulating in which he mentions the issue of environmental policies and the Brazilian Congress. THE speech also mentions the Amazon Summit meeting, which should take place this week coming to Belém (Pará). After the speech, people began to talk on the internet that Lula had threatened the Closing National Congress. Read the message that is circulating online, its transcription and a video that reflects the subject: Version 1:_*Lula will close Congress. That is the intention!!!..🦑 That is the plan!!!…🦑 Just like it was done in Venezuela. *The🦑Thief is more MATURE. Serious. Lula threatens Congress._ Transcript Lula: _Make a call if there is no other reason for us to have a new global governance that I do not depend on my Congress, that I do not depending on what the other country does not depend on its Congress. Because many Sometimes you approve something in ACOP and when they arrive in your country, Congress doesn't approve the businesspeople, doesn't accept it and then things don't get executed then this August meeting that will be in Belém will be a landmark meeting for We are serious about defending the Amazon._ Transcription woman: _You understand correctly he wants to make decisions alone He does not want Congress to get involved in decisions. Who was the dictator again? Wasn't Bolsonaro a dictator? Guys, what are people waiting for to ask for the Impeachment of this old gaga what are the people waiting for? He's waiting for him Really implementing the dictatorship is what he wants, he wants to govern alone. It's the same in other countries, his friend. There are my people. This is our president_ Analysis The message, in fact, cites a reliable source, which is the president himself Squid. On the other hand, it has some characteristics of fake news, such as the tone alarmist and Portuguese errors. Furthermore, it is not new that “overinterpretations” of Lula’s speeches generate fake news on the internet. We have already denied, for example, that he would have said that would confiscate Brazilian savings and that a “little robbery” on the street was good. In the checking part, we will check the following information: 1) Lula, from In fact, he made such a threat to Congress and said he would close it at the meeting in August? 2) What did Lula say in the video in question? 3) What does the speech mean from him? Check ## Lula, in fact, made such a threat to Congress and said he would close it down meeting in August? He didn't. Firstly, because at no point did he explicitly say that he would closing Congress doesn't make the case either (unlike, for example, many allies and admirers of Bolsonaro). Secondly because there is no Lula's movement in this direction (contrary to what happened when Bolsonaro was in power). Third, because the speech that is circulating has been edited. ## What did Lula say in the video in question? The statement in question was made in May 2023. According to the transcripts from Palácio do Planalto, the full statement is as follows: _If there is no other reason for us to have a new global governance, I not depend on my congress, that other countries do not depend on their congresses. Why do you often approve something at a COP and when it arrives in your country, congress doesn't approve it, businesspeople don't accept it and then things are not executed. So, at this meeting in August, which will be in Belém, be a landmark meeting for us to become serious about defending the Amazon_ _That's why I make a call: if there's no other reason for us to have new global governance, with the strengthening of the United Nations with other countries, the climate issue will only have a solution if we have decisions global. May I not depend on my congress, may another country not depend on the your congress. Because many times you approve something at a COP and when When it arrives in your country, congress does not approve it. Businesspeople don't accept it, and then, things are not executed._ Detail: in the video that is circulating, the excerpt that mentions the environmental and only it (“if there is no other reason for us to have a new governance global, with the strengthening of the United Nations with other countries, the issue of climate will only have a solution if we have global decisions”) is suppressed. And there there is the impression that he wants to govern alone. ## What does his speech mean? Clearly, he pointed out that the Amazon meeting will make Congress Brazilians give the necessary importance to environmental issues and can there is approval of what is agreed in international agreements. Furthermore, he also advocated that there be deliberative global agreements regarding the environment environment (this statement may be controversial). However, it does not mean closing the Legislature in Brazil. Conclusion Fake news ❌ It is false that Lula said he was going to close Congress or did anything threat to the Brazilian Legislature. In addition to the speech being distorted and edited, there is nothing to point out (not even protests from deputies and senators) for this. Ps: This article is a suggestion from Boatos.org readers.
