The PCB candidate for the presidency, Sofia Manzano, said today (19) that her first measures, if elected, will be the renationalization of privatized companies, the end of the oil import price policy and the repurchase operations of the Central Bank. 
“The first measure is to end Central Bank repo operations, which currently represent 30% of the public debt and remunerate surplus cash from private banks”, highlighted the candidate. Manzano’s statements were given in an interview with the Opera Mundi vehicle.
According to the candidate, the second measure will be the end of the oil import price policy, which, for her, will contain the rise in inflation in the country. Manzano also pointed out that it intends to renationalise BR Distribuidora, the Landulfo Alves refinery and Eletrobras.
In addition to the interview, Sofia Manzano’s agenda visited the construction site of the hospital at the State University of Ceará (UECE); she did leafleting on the Itaperi campus, at the same university; she visited the Carlos Marighella occupation; participated in a conversation circle at the Federal University of Ceará (UFC); held a press conference at the headquarters of the newspaper O Poder Popular and participated in a debate on reducing the working day to 30 hours a week at the National Union of Students (UNE) in Fortaleza.
