Privatizing Part of Petrobras Is in Bolsonaro’s Plans. This Is Not the First Time the Presidential Candidate Has Spoken on the Subject.

The privatization of Petrobras is still part of Jair Bolsonaro’s discourse, a candidate for the presidency of the Republic for PSL, who was acclaimed this Sunday when he stated that he could privatize part of Petrobras, but emphasized that he is still assessing how this could be done if he is elected by the end of this year in the presidential elections. “Some arms of Petrobras can be privatized. The core, it’s still early,” Bolsonaro told some journalists. Thus, according to the candidate’s plan, Petrobras could continue with its main business, which is the oil exploration and production sector.

“I cannot explain a bit more because it is in the development phase. Part of it could indeed be privatized, I do not want to advance on certain things that I have agreed upon with several people to help me. And certain revelations only after confirmation, so I don’t have to backtrack later… practically everything will be in the government plan, it will not be a fictional piece,” said Bolsonaro. The merging of the Ministries of Agriculture and Environment is part of his plans as both represent certain conflicts of interest on specific issues. If it depends on the candidate, to receive support from politicians he has to negotiate ministries, he is out. The extinction of the Ministry of Cities is also among his intentions.

Personal Life

He was born in the city of Campinas, in the state of São Paulo, on March 21, 1955, the son of Perci Geraldo Bolsonaro and Olinda Bonturi, both of Italian descent. He was married to Rogéria Nantes Nunes Braga, whom he helped elect as city councilor of the capital of Rio de Janeiro in 1992 and 1996, and with whom he had three children: Flávio (state deputy of Rio de Janeiro), Carlos (like his father and mother, a city councilor in Rio de Janeiro, the youngest in the country), and Eduardo. From his second marriage, to Ana Cristina Valle, he had Renan.

In 2007, he met his current wife, Michelle de Paula Firmo Reinaldo, when she was a parliamentary secretary in the Chamber of Deputies. In the year and two months she worked with Bolsonaro, she was promoted and her salary nearly tripled. Nine days after being hired, the two made a prenuptial agreement, and two months later, they got married legally. In 2008, however, Michele had to be dismissed after the Supreme Court prohibited nepotism in public administration. In 2013, the couple held a religious ceremony conducted by pastor Silas Malafaia. With Michelle, the deputy had his first daughter, Laura. The family lives in a luxury condominium in Barra da Tijuca, Rio de Janeiro.

Military Career

Bolsonaro attended the Army Preparatory School for Cadets and then the Military Academy of Agulhas Negras, graduating in 1977. He served in the 9th Field Artillery Group in Nioaque, MS, from 1979 to 1981. After that, he joined the Paratrooper Infantry Brigade, where he specialized in parachuting. In 1983, he graduated in physical education from the Army Physical Education School, and became a master in jumps through the Brigade. In 1987, he attended the School of Improvement for Officers (EsAO).
