Post Soft-Coup Brazil: Bolsonaro is selling Brazil to US investors, already 12 airports sold & state oil company Petrobras is also on the list

“We are selling,” announced Paulo Guedes. “We have already sold 12 airports, concessions, we are selling everything!”, he assured. And apparently, the Bolsonaro government is in a hurry: “We have to accelerate privatization. Brazil has been sleeping for 10 years,” Guedes said, explaining that the money from the sale of Brazilian companies and investments will be used to pay the domestic debt. But not everything … “Not all the money will be used to reduce the debt because when Banco do Brasil or Petrobras sells parts of their operations, a percentage of the money goes to the private investors.”

Guedes assured that the government is already secretly selling the national goods. “Our goal is to sell $ 20 billion dollars this year.” Silently, quietly, we’ve already sold $ 12 billion dollars. That’s more than half. We will beat our goal”. The Minister also made clear that when it comes to the current government, Brazil will soon no longer have a State oil company. In the clear words of Guedes: “Petrobras has to focus on its core business. Exploring oil, and that’s what it’s going to do. The rest will be sold. So you focus on what you have to do, you become more efficient, focused, easy to sell.“
