I am the President of Brazil

The impact of Gustavo Andrade's speech on Brazil's sovereignty in the Amazon reverberated throughout the country. Immediately after the speech, the Brazilian media went into an uproar, and celebrities and digital influencers were no exception. While some applauded the president's firm stance, others raised questions about the real intentions and effectiveness of the measures announced. Social media, news portals and TV shows were buzzing with divergent and intense opinions.

In the newsrooms of the country's main media outlets, Gustavo's speech became the central topic. TV Globo, Record and CNN Brasil dedicated hours of their programs to the debate on the sovereignty of the Amazon and the president's response to international criticism.

On the Jornal Nacional program, William Bonner opened the episode highlighting Gustavo's speech.

— Good evening. President Gustavo Andrade made a statement today about the Amazon, reaffirming Brazil's sovereignty and announcing stricter measures against those responsible for the fires. The speech generated strong international and domestic repercussions, and reignited the debate about the preservation of the rainforest and the actions of foreign powers in the region.

A series of interviews with environmentalists and political experts were then aired. In the studio, two analysts debated the pros and cons of Gustavo's speech.

"It's a courageous stance. Gustavo is defending national sovereignty on a delicate and sensitive issue. But will these measures really be implemented?" asked environmental commentator Carla Mendes.

"He was very clear in stating that new operations are already being initiated. The challenge now is to do this effectively, without opening space for more illegal deforestation," responded political analyst Bruno Carvalho.

CNN Brasil organized a special panel with environmentalists, political scientists and journalists to discuss Gustavo's statement. Among the guests, there was some skepticism about the effectiveness of the announced actions.

— The speech was strong, but we need to see how it will be put into practice. Historically, Brazil has had difficulty monitoring areas in the Amazon, and the fires are the result of decades of negligence, argued journalist Mariana Vasconcellos.

Other media outlets, such as O Globo and Folha de S.Paulo, published critical analyses. O Globo highlighted the nationalist tone of the speech, pointing to the growing tension between Brazil and countries such as France. Folha focused on questioning whether the punitive measures against environmental criminals would be severe enough.

While the formal media held their debates, social media exploded with reactions from celebrities and influencers. Actress and environmental activist Fernanda Lima was one of the first to speak out on her Instagram.

— We need real actions to protect the Amazon, not just harsh words. The future of the planet is at stake, and Brazil has an enormous responsibility. I hope the president truly fulfills the promises he made today, wrote Fernanda, sharing photos of the fires in the Amazon.

Paola Oliveira, Gustavo's wife, also made a post, praising the president's stance:

— I am proud of Gustavo for his firmness and commitment to Brazil. He showed the world that we are a sovereign nation and that we will not accept interference. The Amazon is ours! Now, it is time to act and protect what is ours.

Paola's post was widely shared and received thousands of likes and comments, dividing opinions. While many praised her defense of the president, others criticized her for being in a relationship with someone in a position of power.

Singer and former Minister of Culture Gilberto Gil, known for his environmental activism, also joined the debate.

— It is important to reaffirm our sovereignty, yes. But it is essential to remember that the forest needs to be protected, not only for Brazil, but for the world. The preservation of the Amazon is a global issue, and we must balance this with our autonomy as a nation.

Gilberto Gil was more thoughtful, seeking a middle ground between defending Brazilian territory and global environmental responsibility.

Other celebrities, such as Anitta, used their platforms to provoke deeper reflections. The singer made a direct comment on her social media, questioning the real effectiveness of Gustavo's words.

— Nice speech, but I want to see actions. Where is the monitoring? Where is the support for the indigenous peoples who have protected the Amazon for centuries? Words do not save forests. Action does.

Anitta's post was widely debated and generated enormous interaction on social media, with many fans supporting her critical view and others defending Gustavo's stance.

Soccer player Neymar, on the other hand, he showed explicit support for the president. In a live broadcast on Instagram, he briefly commented on the speech:

— I liked Gustavo's stance. The Amazon is ours, and we have to protect what is ours, without letting anyone outside want to rule here.

While Neymar positioned himself in favor of Gustavo, artists such as Caetano Veloso and Marília Gabriela expressed concern about the future of the forest. In a video on YouTube, Caetano discussed the global impact of decisions on the Amazon, defending preservation as a priority.

On social media, the hashtags #AmazôniaÉNossa and #SoberaniaBrasileira dominated the trending topics on Twitter. Supporters of the government celebrated Gustavo's firm stance, while critics pointed out the need for more concrete action.

In a viral thread, environmentalist André Trigueiro warned of the dangers of insufficient oversight:

— The issue is not just stating that the Amazon is ours, but ensuring that it continues to exist. The government needs to go beyond words and invest heavily in monitoring, protecting indigenous peoples and promoting sustainable development. Otherwise, all this talk will be in vain.

On the other side, right-wing influencers, such as political commentator Gustavo Gayer, praised the president's firm stance.

— We finally have a president who does not bow to international pressure. Gustavo is right to defend our sovereignty. The Amazon belongs to Brazil, period!
