Is the government left-wing?

The left says no.

The Lula government contradicts the ideas of the Brazilian left by omitting and trying to hush up the episode involving the Deputy Chief of Parliamentary Affairs of the Civil House, Waldomiro Diniz, former advisor to minister José Dirceu, and by privileging commitments made with multilateral organizations to the detriment of a policy that confronts and mitigates social problems. The evaluation is by intellectuals Octavio Ianni, Plínio de Arruda Sampaio Júnior, Ricardo Antunes and Wilson Cano, all professors at Unicamp. Teachers also criticize political alliances, unfulfilled promises and the lack of dialogue. For professor Eni Orlandi, from the Institute of Language Studies, the tactic of silence recently adopted by the government is a strategy to silence other speeches and a way of not giving concrete satisfaction to the country.
