President Lula (PT) stated to Sheet who refused to decree the GLO (Guarantee of Law and Order) during the attacks on the buildings of the three Powers, on January 8, 2023, so as not to delegate to the military the command of a crisis that, according to him, should be resolved in politics.
“In the conversations I had with Minister Flávio Dino [de Justicia], and there were many, among several things he told me, he raised the possibility of decreeing the GLO. And I told Minister Flávio Dino that there would be no GLO. No, because whoever wants power should contest the elections and win, like I won the elections,” the president said in a video statement to Sheet.
According to allies, there were those in the Government who advocated for the GLO decree to try to put an end to the scenes of vandalism in Brasilia. For the authorities, that day, the security forces of the Federal District were not acting to contain the protesters.
There was also an atmosphere of distrust towards the military, due to the association of those in uniform with the government of Jair Bolsonaro (PL).
