“No entanto, em 2018, tive a oportunidade de virar ministro da Justiça e encarava como missão por um propósito maior. Porém, quando o governo boicotou o projeto de combate à corrupção, passou a adotar um comportamento de, ao invés de coibir, interferir, saí do governo. Estamos perdendo o que construímos a duras penas na Operação Lava Jato”
Portal translation: However, in 2018, I had the opportunity to become Minister of Justice and I saw it as a mission for a greater purpose. But when the government sabotaged the anti-corruption project and began to adopt a behavior of interfering instead of restraining, I left the government. We are losing what we built with great effort in Operation Lava Jato
