Michel Temer

My father always said that Brazil is the place to 'make America,' and by 'make America' he meant the place to grow - to prosper.

My first word for the people of Brazil is the word 'confidence.' Confidence in the values that form the character of our people, the vitality of our democracy.

In South America, there is no more room for alternatives to democracy.

Protests are part of our democracy.

I am aware that if I do become the president, I, too, could be processed for any political wrongdoing.

I don't need to make political gestures or take steps to get re-elected.

Nobody is more capable of detecting eventual economic fluctuation than women, since they monitor the increases and decreases of their home's budgets.

It was an important and daring decision to open Eletrobras capital to private investors.

I want to construct a better country for each Brazilian: pacified, just, without hate or rancor.

I fear no accusations.

I have been denounced for passive corruption without having received anything of value. Where is the concrete proof that I received something of value?

Embraer is Brazilian. It represents Brazil very well abroad.
