In Order to Favor Companies Like Shell and BP, Environmental Rules, Local Content and Taxes Were Eased After Meeting With British Minister.

[supsystic-social-sharing id=’1′]A revealing report has just been released by one of the world’s most acclaimed newspapers, The Guardian. The governance of England put pressure on Michel Temer, and they were successful, to change the regulatory guidelines for fossil fuel exploration in Brazil, favoring global companies like Shell and BP. The one with the difficult task of lobbying was the Minister of Trade, Greg Hands, who came to Rio de Janeiro and met with Paulo Pedrosa, secretary of the Ministry of Mines and Energy under Michel Temer.

“A mission given is a mission accomplished”! With this motto, the English government managed without much difficulty for the government of our country to eliminate requirements for Brazilian local content, ease compliance with environmental regulations, and that large multinational oil companies would pay taxes, surpassing the incredible mark of R$ 1 trillion in taxes and bureaucracy collected by the country.

According to The Guardian itself, in an interview with oil workers, Michel Temer was nicknamed “Misshell Temer“, because according to them, the Brazilian leader is going against Brazil’s sovereignty and handing everything over to foreigners on a silver platter, even eliminating crucial rules, according to the newspaper.
