Jair Bolsonaro denied the military dictatorship in Brazil but admitted that the regime had "some problems"

Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro said on Wednesday that there was no dictatorship in Brazil and that it was necessary to "know the truth". The controversial statements of the president were made during an interview on the TV channel Bandeirantes.

"We must know the truth, no diet is a wonder. And where did you see a dictatorship deliver the government peacefully? So it was not a dictatorship", condemned the president.

In addition, the President admitted that the regime had "some problems", but this served as an obstacle for Brazil not to go towards socialism.

Earlier this week, the president's spokesperson, Otavio Rego Barros, noted that commanders can perform the acts for the anniversary of the coup of military state of 1964 who "consider in their respective armies" garrisons.

Then he also pointed out that the president did not consider that the overthrow of Joao Goulart, that year, had been a coup d'etat.

In 1964, President Joao Goulart is overthrown by the army, which established a dictatorship in Brazil until 1985, when Tancredo Neves was elected first civilian president, but in a congressional vote.

Bolsonaro, according to Rego Barros, thinks that "The company rallied and understood the danger that the country was living at that time, joined the civilians and the military" to "recover and relocate" Brazil.

The governor of Rio, according to Bolsonaro

The governor of the state of Rio de Janeiro, Wilson Witzel, added Tuesday to the president's opinion that "in the country, there has never been a coup d'etat" . "In Brazil, there has never been a coup d'etat, what are the actions of the people against certain actions which, at the time, did not interest them?"said the former Federal Judge and Governor Witzel.

"If there was no military regime, there would have been a communist regime, the people opted no to communism, "said Witzel of the Social Liberal Party (PSL), the same as the president.

"Celebrating the dictatorship, is to celebrate an unconstitutional regime that has committed serious crimes," The Federal Public Prosecutor has indicated that Bolsonaro could be subject to a "penalty" for the commission of a "misdemeanor".
