Paulo Sergio Nogueira de Oliveira is assigned to the Army, Almir Garnier to the Navy, and Carlos Almeida Baptista Júnior to the Air Force.
Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro
The Brazilian Ministry of Defense (Defense Minister of Brazil) on Wednesday nominated new commanders of its armies. The Brazilian government said in a statement on Tuesday that the commanders of the Brazilian Army, Navy and Air Force will be replaced. President Jair Bolsonaro has made six major changes in his cabinet, including the Foreign Minister and the Defense Minister.
Paulo Sergio Nogueira de Oliveira has been given the command of the Army, Almir Garnier has been given the command of the Navy and Carlos Almeida Bapista Junier has been given the command of the Air Force. In his first news conference after assuming the charge of Defense Minister this week, Defense Minister Walter Braga Netto gave this information. Announcing the names of the army commanders, he said that the country’s armies will remain loyal to their constitutional duties.
Major changes made in the cabinet
The names of the new commanders were announced on the anniversary of the 1964 coup in Brazil, which led to 21 years of military rule in the country. Braga Netto issued a statement on Tuesday in which he described the events of 31 March 1964 when the army took power in Brazil as a ‘movement’ rather than a coup.
Please tell that Brazilian President Bolsonaro is facing constant criticisms. In the past, he has made many major changes in his cabinet. He has made new appointments to many big posts, including the Defense Minister, Foreign Minister of the country. Recently, he also appointed the new Health Minister.
Second wave of Corona in Brazil
Please tell that more than 3 lakh people have died in Brazil due to Corona. Currently, the second wave of Corona has also arrived. At present, the total number of infected people here is more than 1.25 crore. In the last 24 hours, 1660 people have died here. The situation in Brazil is such that hospitals do not even have beds.
On the other hand, the President of Brazil is constantly in the discussions by making strange statements. In December last year, he said that if someone takes the vaccine, he will become a crocodile. He also said that the beard of women will grow with this vaccine. Not only this, recently he said that people die everyday, face it. Angry at his absurd statement, the governor even told him to be a ‘mental patient’.
