Former President Jair Bolsonaro (PL) son, he still praised Mills, stating that he is a word man who said and did.
Self -examined in the United States, Eduardo Bolsonaro conditioned his return to Brazil to when Minister Alexandre de Moraes of the Supreme Federal Court (STF) is “sanctioned”.
At the beginning of May, Eduardo had published on his social networks that the interim chief of the US government’s sanctions coordination, David Gamble, was going to meet Jair Bolsonaro and Senator Flávio Bolsonaro (PL-RJ) in Brazil. The licensed deputy treated the trip as a step towards a possible sanction against Moraes by the White House. The meeting was not held.
Instead, Flávio Bolsonaro received in his Senate office the senior consultant of the Western Affairs Department of the US State Department, Ricardo Pita, to deal with organized crime.
What the Magnitsky Law says, quoted by Rubio
The Magnitsky Law provides for sanctions such as the blockade of bank and goods accounts on US soil, as well as the prohibition of entry into the country. Approved during the government of Barack Obama in 2012, the legislation was created after the death of Sergei Magnitsky, a Russian lawyer who denounced a corruption scheme involving his country’s authorities and died in a Moscow prison in 2009. Initially, the law focused on punishing those responsible for his death.
In order for sanctions to be applied against foreign individuals, the president of the United States must present reliable evidence of infractions, including extrajudicial executions, torture and other serious human rights violations. These measures may be imposed on agents who repress allegations of corruption, surround fundamental freedoms or act against democratic elections.
Those who enter the list can face blockade of assets and bank accounts in the country, and have the visa canceled and prohibited from entering the US. These measures are used against people, companies or organizations involved in financial crimes or human rights violations.
