What comes after the vote to impeach Brazil\u2019s president<\/strong><\/p>\n The vice-president is likely to take power. He will not find it easy to govern the country<\/strong><\/p>\n Apr 18th 2016<\/p>\n <\/p>\n AT 11.07pm on April 17th federal deputy Bruno Ara\u00fajo of Pernambuco state cast the most momentous vote in his parliamentary career. The lawmaker for the centre-right opposition Party of Brazilian Social Democracy (PSDB) was the 342nd member of the 513-seat lower house of Brazil\u2019s Congress to say \u201cyes\u201d to sending impeachment charges against the president, Dilma Rousseff, to the Senate for trial. The necessary threshold of two-thirds of deputies had thus been passed; Ms Rousseff\u2019s foes in the chamber burst into song. By the time voting ended, just before midnight, they had notched up 367 votes. The government, led by Ms Rousseff\u2019s Workers\u2019 Party (PT), managed 137, plus seven abstentions and two absentees\u2014well short of the 172 it needed to block the motion.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n In their brief speeches during the rowdy six-hour roll-call vote, pro-impeachment lawmakers railed against Ms Rousseff\u2019s economic mismanagement and PT corruption\u2014the party and its allies are embroiled in a vast bribery scandal centred on the state-run oil company, Petrobras. They were voting for their families, they proclaimed, or their constituents, or God<\/a>. One elated pro-impeachment deputy blurted out that he did it for \u201cpeace in Jerusalem\u201d. Few mentioned the abstruse charge against Ms Rousseff: that she had fiddled with government accounts to hide the true size of the budget deficit.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n With Mr Ara\u00fajo\u2019s vote Brazil entered a tense and uncertain time. In the next few days the Senate\u2019s Speaker, Renan Calheiros, will convene a commission to analyse the lower-house motion. It has ten sessions to recommend whether to proceed with the trial, which then needs the approval of a simple majority of the 81 senators to begin. That is likely to happen by mid-May.<\/p>\n If the senators decide to go ahead, as looks likely, Ms Rousseff must step aside as president. The vice-president, Michel Temer will take her place for up to 180 days. Should two-thirds of senators then vote to remove Ms Rousseff from office, Mr Temer would serve out the rest of her term, which ends in 2018.<\/p>\n If he does eventually take over, he will face a daunting task. The economy is in a tailspin. Economic output fell by 3.8% in 2015 and could shrink by as much again this year, reckons the IMF. Some 10m Brazilians, or one in ten workers, are jobless. Inflation has eased slightly but remains near 10%, eroding incomes. To restore confidence Mr Temer would first need to reduce the budget deficit, which has ballooned from 2.4% of GDP to 10.8% since Ms Rousseff first took office in 2011. That would require a combination of spending cuts and tax rises, neither of which is popular\u2014and some of which need constitutional changes to enact.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Investors will cheer the impeachment vote. Many reckon that anyone is better than the hapless Ms Rousseff. In November Mr Temer outlined a set of business-friendly reform proposals at odds with the left-wing programme of Ms Rousseff\u2019s PT. But euphoria will be short-lived if he does not quickly present a clear reform agenda and a strong economic team. Despite his pro-reform instincts, neither is assured.<\/p>\n Just because 72% of the house backed impeachment does not mean Mr Temer will have an easy time putting together simple majorities for reforms in Congress, let alone the three-fifths of both houses needed to amend the constitution. He cannot even bank on the full support of his own centrist Party of the Brazilian Democratic Movement (PMDB): seven of his party colleagues backed Ms Rousseff during the impeachment vote, including the party\u2019s leader in the chamber, Leonardo Picciani.<\/p>\n http:\/\/www.economist.com\/news\/americas\/21697096-vice-president-likely-take-power-he-will-not-find-it-easy-govern-country-what<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Translation<\/strong><\/p>\n What comes after the vote to impeach Brazil\u2019s president<\/strong><\/p>\n O que vem depois do voto para impedir a presidente do Brasil<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n The vice-president is likely to take power.

Quando a vota\u00e7\u00e3o terminou, pouco antes da meia-noite, eles haviam conseguido 367 votos. O governo, liderado pelo Partido dos Trabalhadores de Dilma Rousseff (PT), conseguiu 137, al\u00e9m de sete absten\u00e7\u00f5es e duas aus\u00eancias, muito aqu\u00e9m dos 172 que precisava para bloquear o movimento.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n In their brief speeches during the rowdy six-hour roll-call vote, pro-impeachment lawmakers railed against Ms Rousseff\u2019s economic mismanagement and PT corruption\u2014the party and its allies are embroiled in a vast bribery scandal centred on the state-run oil company, Petrobras.

Eles estavam votando pelas suas fam\u00edlias, eles proclamaram, ou pelos seus constituintes, ou por Deus. Um exultante vice-pr\u00f3-impeachment deixou escapar que ele fez isso para “a paz em Jerusal\u00e9m”. Poucos mencionaram a acusa\u00e7\u00e3o confusa contra Dilma Rousseff: que ela tinha manipulado sem sucesso as contas do governo para esconder a verdadeira dimens\u00e3o do d\u00e9fice or\u00e7amental.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n With Mr Ara\u00fajo\u2019s vote Brazil entered a tense and uncertain time.

That is likely to happen by mid-May.<\/p>\n Com o voto do de Bruno Ara\u00fajo, o Brasil entrou em um momento tenso e incerto. Nos pr\u00f3ximos dias, o Presidente do Senado, Renan Calheiros, vai convocar uma comiss\u00e3o para analisar a mo\u00e7\u00e3o da C\u00e2mara dos Deputados. Ela tem dez sess\u00f5es para recomendar se deseja prosseguir com o julgamento, que, em seguida, precisa da aprova\u00e7\u00e3o de uma maioria simples dos 81 senadores para come\u00e7ar. \u00c9 prov\u00e1vel que isso aconte\u00e7a em meados de maio.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n If the senators decide to go ahead, as looks likely, Ms Rousseff must step aside as president. The vice-president, Michel Temer will take her place for up to 180 days. Should two-thirds of senators then vote to remove Ms Rousseff from office, Mr Temer would serve out the rest of her term, which ends in 2018.<\/p>\n Se os senadores decidirem ir em frente, como parece prov\u00e1vel, Dilma deve entregar o cargo de presidente. O vice-presidente, Michel Temer vai tomar o seu lugar por at\u00e9 180 dias. Se dois ter\u00e7os dos senadores, em seguida, votar para remover Dilma Rousseff do cargo, ent\u00e3o Michel Temer completaria o resto do seu mandato, que termina em 2018.<\/span><\/p>\n If he does eventually take over, he will face a daunting task.

A economia est\u00e1 em queda livre. A produ\u00e7\u00e3o econ\u00f4mica caiu 3,8% em 2015 e poder\u00e1 diminuir o mesmo novamente este ano, avalia o FMI. Cerca de 10 milh\u00f5es de brasileiros, ou um em cada dez trabalhadores, est\u00e3o desempregados. A infla\u00e7\u00e3o diminuiu ligeiramente, mas permanece perto de 10%, corroendo a renda. Para restaurar a confian\u00e7a, Michel Temer primeiro precisa reduzir o d\u00e9ficit or\u00e7ament\u00e1rio, que inchou de 2,4% do PIB para 10,8% desde que Dilma Rousseff tomou posse em 2011. Isso exigiria uma combina\u00e7\u00e3o de redu\u00e7\u00f5es de gastos e aumentos de impostos, nenhum dos quais \u00e9 popular e alguns dos quais precisam de mudan\u00e7as constitucionais para serem promulgados.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Investors will cheer the impeachment vote.

Despite his pro-reform instincts, neither is assured.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Os investidores v\u00e3o animar a vota\u00e7\u00e3o do impeachment. Muitos acham que qualquer um \u00e9 melhor que a infeliz Dilma Rousseff. Em novembro, \u00a0Michel Temer delineou um conjunto de propostas de reforma ideal para neg\u00f3cios em desacordo com o programa de esquerda do PT de Dilma Rousseff. Mas a euforia vai ser de curta dura\u00e7\u00e3o, se ele n\u00e3o apresentar rapidamente uma agenda de reformas clara e uma equipe econ\u00f3mica forte. Apesar de seus instintos pr\u00f3-reforma, nenhuma est\u00e1 garantida.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Just because 72% of the house backed impeachment does not mean Mr Temer will have an easy time putting together simple majorities for reforms in Congress, let alone the three-fifths of both houses needed to amend the constitution.

Ele n\u00e3o pode mesmo contar com o total apoio de seu pr\u00f3prio partido centrista do Movimento Democr\u00e1tico Brasileiro (PMDB): sete de seus colegas de partido apoiaram Dilma Rousseff durante a vota\u00e7\u00e3o do impeachment, incluindo o l\u00edder do partido na C\u00e2mara, Leonardo Picciani.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Se voc\u00ea \u00e9 iniciante em L\u00edngua Inglesa, ou se teve dificuldade de entender esse texto, sugiro um dos cursos abaixo para que assim voc\u00ea possa se preparar com anteced\u00eancia e n\u00e3o ter o Ingl\u00eas como um obst\u00e1culo \u00e0 sua aprova\u00e7\u00e3o.
