Limitations: The article also covers the request going to the PGR (request for precautionary removal, etc.), which is not the focus of this version of the collection.

To Agência Pública, the Lava Jato task force replied, according to Congresso em Foco, that 'it is not a matter of acting in partnership, but of cooperation between the authorities responsible for criminal prosecution in their countries', in accordance with international treaties, and that the exchange follows international norms and Brazilian laws.

Excerpt: “não se trata de atuação em parceria, mas de cooperação entre autoridades responsáveis pela persecução criminal em seus países”
