Case of soldier who left Brazil shakes relations with Israel, says professor
Let’s remember that this decision was based on the Rome Statute, which the president himself has already made a fool of himself by saying, I don’t know very well whether Brazil is a signatory, whether Brazil is involved or not, because of the Putin issue.
We will now host, as president of the BRICS, a summit here in Brazil, and we will have other actors involved with other things, including the Russians, including Vladimir Putin himself, who has already made a statement that may not come, but that the president He said that if he comes, he is guaranteed here. Could it be that the Israeli soldier was not guaranteed here, but the president of Russia is?

“It is necessary to end the politicization of the armed forces in Brazil”
The political scientist also assessed that it is necessary to end the politicization of the armed forces in Brazil to avoid misunderstandings such as the Navy video that mocked privileges.
“We need to put an end once and for all to the politicization of the armed forces in Brazil. The armed forces have unfortunately always had an episode of politicization in Brazil since they were constituted, since the advent of the republic, but we imagined that this had already happened been pacified post-88.”
“So we need to adopt this model, once and for all, to avoid these misunderstandings, and not allow sectors of the armed forces to permanently place a ‘sack’ around the institutions’ necks, to say no, here we don’t mess with these privileges. Yes, it changes, because they are also citizens of the same federative pact, the same constitutional pact that we all are, and we need to give our share of sacrifice.”
