First inauguration of Dilma Rousseff to the people as President. Then, Rousseff will induct her 37 ministers inside the palace. Once this stage of the ceremony has passed, Rousseff will offer a reception to foreign authorities that were sent to Brazil to witness her inauguration at about 18:30 hours UTC−2 (6:30 pm). Each foreign authority will have the opportunity to speak with Rousseff for 30 seconds. The inaugural day featured concerts by five Brazilian female singers: Elba Ramalho, Fernanda Takai, Mart'nália, Zélia Duncan, and Gaby Amarantos. According to the newspaper "Diário do Pará", the Ministry of Culture chose these singers to represent all five regions
Impeachment of Dilma Rousseff stressed the company's financial health. She stepped down from the Petrobras board only in February 2015. Some international companies were chosen to be encouraged and, thereafter participated in unrealistic bids to drain the state-owned company, giving back much of the value through seemingly licit donations. It was alleged that statements taken from the accused in Operation Car Wash suggested that Lula and Rousseff had known of the bribery scheme in Petrobras. Rousseff issued six unnumbered decrees in 2014 and 2015 that allocated funds to social programs, allegedly for political purposes, without authorization from Congress. These totaled R$18.5 billion (US$6.9 billion)
