Deltan Dallagnol, November 30, 2015

“Nós estamos com pressa, porque o DOJ já veio e teve encontro formal com os advogados dos colaboradores, e a partir daí os advogados vão resolver a situação dos clientes lá… Isso atende o que os americanos precisam e não dependerão mais de nós. A partir daí, perderemos força para negociar divisão do dinheiro que recuperarem. Daí nossa pressa”

Portal translation: We are in a hurry, because the DOJ has already come and had a formal meeting with the cooperating witnesses' lawyers, and from there the lawyers will resolve the clients' situation there… That meets what the Americans need and they will no longer depend on us. From there, we will lose strength to negotiate the division of the money they recover. Hence our hurry

The translation is the portal's; the original text, in Portuguese, is the one that prevails.

Context

Aras asked where the cooperating witnesses were being heard by the Americans; Dallagnol explains the task force's haste, referring to the previous month's visit.
