Lula Comments on Vorcaro Case and Supreme Court

Brazilian President Lula said the Vorcaro case affects the image of the Supreme Federal Court (STF) and revealed a conversation with Justice Moraes, telling him not to let Vorcaro ruin his biography. Lula also said more people should follow Vorcaro's testimony, adding that plea bargains can be bought. He stated he would like to close betting platforms and claimed that parliamentarians finance them. Additionally, he said he has not yet decided on running for re-election but would hardly refrain from doing so. Reports indicate he is distancing himself from the STF due to fears of negative electoral consequences.
