In an interview with Radio Capital, from Mato Grosso, Moro offered this statement about what Operation Lava Jato served, when he referred to the criticism of his former political leader, President Bolsonaro, of whom he was Minister of Justice.
“How can we defend a government like this. With hungry people lining up to look for bones in the butchers, a government negligent with vaccines, which offends the people, a government that dismantled the fight against corruption, “said Moro.
Moro’s conviction for corruption against Lula as judge of the city of Curitiba in charge of the anti-corruption operation Lava Jato and the PT leader’s prison in 2018 paved the way for Bolsonaro, a former Army captain who used detours in the state Petrobras as a campaign flag to defeat the left.
In another part of the interview, Moro sought to rectify himself and said that Lava Jato “barely discovered the mechanisms of corruption and showed what the PT is truly like.”
Former Judge Moro is third in the polls of vote intention of 9%, against 48% of Lula and 22% of Bolsonaro, according to the survey of December 16 of the datafolha demoscopic company, facing the October elections .
Quickly, the deputy Paulo Teixeira, of the PT, a lawyer and member of the party’s director board, accused Moro of being a “vigilante and criminal” after the statement.
“In other words, in a failed act, Moro confirmed that Operation Lava Jato was a political project to fight the PT,” said Nelson Barbosa, former Minister of Planning and last Minister of Economy of Dilma Rousseff, the president dismissed in court. politician in 2016, in the heat of the street demonstrations in support of Lava Jato.
Former judge Moro was considered partial by 7 to 4 by the Federal Supreme Court and executor of a “tropical stasi”, as described by the court magistrate Gilmar Mendes, for having played a role of persecution against Lula.
Moro must give explanations to the Court of Accounts of the Union (state control body), which requested proof of how much he earned during his work between 2019 and 2021 for the international consulting firm Alvarez & Marsal, in Washington, a firm that carries out the judicial recovery and bankruptcy of the construction company Odebrecht, the axis of the bribes reported in Operation Lava Jato.

On the other hand, Moro yesterday minimized the fact that one of the most important money smugglers and currency launderer in Brazil, Alberto Yousef, sentenced in Lava Jato to 120 years in prison but free because he became an awarded whistleblower, has financed by lending his private plane to Senator Alvaro Dias, founder of the Podemos party.
Dias, who took Moro to Podemos, received in 1998 as a campaign donation flights in Youssef’s private jet, who in 2003 was convicted by Moro in the scandal of the emptying of the Banestado public bank and then in 2017, in Operation Lava Jato , for being the money laundering of companies and political leaders who received bribes.
Dias was an important southern Brazilian leader of the Brazilian Social Democracy Party (PSDB), which he left in 2018 to be a presidential candidate for Podemos.
“I did not know Senator Dias at the time and I did not know who Youssef was, whom I sentenced in 2003,” Moro explained.
The former head of the Lava Jato prosecutors, Deltan Dallagnol, accused of manipulating cases against the PT and seeking to recover the money diverted from Petrobras for his own team of investigators, joined the Podemos party after resigning from the Public Ministry to avoid being sanctioned for his illegalities in Lava Jato, obtained by the leaks of his chats on Telegram.
