"Brazil needs a Supreme Court that does not have figures linked to corruption scandals"

Now2 September 2026 at 12:26

Eduardo Baptista Correia and Uriã Fancelli issued warnings about the risks of the close relationship between economic power, the judicial system and the political class. The specialists defended that this proximity between these three spheres represents a threat to the integrity of democratic institutions in Brazil.

The authors highlighted the need to protect the transparency of democratic institutions, warning that public distrust requires greater vigilance and separation between these powers. Transparency was identified as a fundamental element to restore citizens' trust in institutions.

Brazil was pointed out as needing a Supreme Court that does not include figures linked to corruption scandals. This demand reflects growing concerns about the undue influence of economic and political power over the judicial system, compromising its independence and credibility.

Waste collection service concerns in Belmonte

The mayor of Belmonte, António Luís Beites, warned that the waste collection service in the municipality is insufficient, particularly in summer, when the arrival of emigrants increases the population. The mayor revealed he has already spoken with the company SUMA, responsible for the service, to reinforce collections, emphasizing that the council is fulfilling its contractual commitments and expects the company to do the same, having already been notified in writing. The problem is worse in the historic center, where improper parking hinders the passage of trucks. Beites also mentioned that there are problems with the recycling points, managed by Resiestrela, which will also be communicated and subject to future reinforcement.

Municipality reinforces support for farmers affected by fires

The municipality of Valpaços, led by mayor Jorge Mata Pires, met with the parish council presidents of the nine parishes affected by the fires and with agricultural associations to coordinate a joint response to support producers. The main objective is to help farmers prepare and submit applications for measure C.4.1.3 — Restoration of Productive Potential, which covers farms with losses exceeding 30% of productive potential. The strategy involves the municipal Promotion and Investment Office, the parish councils and agricultural associations, which will play a fundamental role in identifying and referring producers. Support includes a non-reimbursable grant of 100% up to 10 thousand euros, and 80% or 50% for higher amounts, depending on whether the beneficiary has active crop insurance. Applications can be submitted until October 27, 2026.
