The British newspaper Financial Times published a special article highlighting that the "crisis" at the Brazilian Supreme Federal Court, involving the public conflict between ministers Alexandre de Moraes and André Mendonça, could have a "decisive impact" on the October presidential elections. The international outlet addressed the Daniel Vorcaro case and the alleged connections between the banker, the alleged mentor of a billion-dollar bank fraud, and Minister Moraes.
The periodical emphasized that, although former President Lula has not been accused in the Banco Master case, the situation hits a weak point for the veteran politician, who in the past was imprisoned for corruption, with convictions later overturned. The crisis also affects Lula due to the fact that his opponents always position Moraes as being on the side of the current president.
The Financial Times also highlighted that Senator Flavio Bolsonaro could be affected by the receipt of millions from Vorcaro destined for financing the film "Dark Horse". The British newspaper recalled that Vorcaro is pointed out as the alleged mentor of a billion-dollar bank fraud.
According to the article, the case has stained the credibility of the institution, referring to the Supreme Federal Court. The British publication brought to the international public the details of the conversations between the banker and Minister Moraes, presenting the internal conflict of the court as a factor that may directly influence the outcome of the Brazilian presidential elections.
