Analysis: Senator Flávio Dino is only name defined for Lula’s cabinet
"The only minister already defined is Flávio Dino because Lula picked him in public." Harried by the anxieties surrounding the cabinet, a campaign coordinator recalls President-elect Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva’s rally in São Luís, on September 2, when he looked at the candidate who would be elected senator for Maranhão and said: "Flávio Dino must get ready. He will be elected senator, but he won’t be senator for long because he will have a lot of work to do in this country."His experience as a judge pushes him to the Justice Ministry and, as governor, to the Chief of Staff Office, but Mr. Lula da Silva limited himself to qualifying his passage through the government of Maranhão: "The genocide calls him a fat governor and I call you the most competent governor we have in the country."Apart from Mr. Dino (Brazilian Socialist Party, PSB), who was not on at Avenida Paulista on Sunday night in the victory rally - he stayed in Maranhão taking care of the election in the state that gave 71.1% of the vote to the Workers’ Party candidate in the second round of voting - Mr. Lula da Silva has no minister appointed. And nor will he have until Friday, when the president-elect returns from a trip to Bahia, where he will rest and pay tribute to the vote he had in the Northeast region. In that state, where Mr. Lula da Silva got 72.1% of the votes, the PT will complete, with the election of Jerônimo Rodrigues, 20 years in power.Speculations are free, some of them based on the prestige they acquired during the campaign, such as Senator Simone Tebet (Brazilian Democratic Movement, MDB), or on the closeness enjoyed with the president-elect, such as Fernando Haddad, who gave the PT the best performance in the history of the party in the dispute for the São Paulo government, with 44.7%, and is responsible for bringing Vice president-elect Geraldo Alckmin and Mr. Lula da Silva closer together.It would be a natural move to analize Marina Silva, who negotiated to join the Workers’ Party candidacy through the creation of a Climate Authority to follow the management of the government’s environmental policy, for the position, but there are no signs that the calls from former directors of the Henrique Meirelles’s term at the Central Bank, now well placed in the financial market, will be definitively welcomed by Mr. Lula da Silva. Especially because these are plans for the former Workers’ Party collaborator to take the Foreign Affairs Ministry, not the Economy...
