The leaders of the Amazon formed an Alliance against the President of Brazil
Several dozen indigenous leaders and representatives of the communities of the Amazon are gathered in the heart of the rainforest to form an Alliance against the environmental policies of Brazilian President Hare of Bolsonaro and his policy aimed at the accelerated development of the mining industry.
the Main purpose of the meeting was to create a United front against the plans of Bolsonaro, which, according to them, pose a threat to Amazon and their way of life and threaten the outbreak of open conflict over land rights.
One of the campaign promises of the President of Bolsonaro was to "integrate the Amazon basin in the Brazilian economy." After coming to power, he reduced 95 per cent of the budget of the Ministry responsible for the environment, and greatly facilitated the extraction of minerals.
Bolsonaro was actively supported by farmers, who began to set fire to the rainforest to release these areas for grazing. The activities of Bolsonaro suffered by indigenous peoples of the Amazon basin. But the disappearance of tropical forests may accelerate climate change, and it will be a disaster on a planetary scale.
Wearing labret - court drive that was worn by the soldiers, - 89-year-old leader Raoni Metuktire said that he would personally go to the capital Brasilia to inform the public about the plans of indigenous peoples and will meet with the President of Bolsonaro. Metuktire is the head of the people kayapo, a Brazilian indigenous group from the plain lands of the Mato Grosso and a Couple in Brazil, South of Amazon river and along the river Shingu and its tributaries.
In August last year, Metuktire met with the President of France Emmanuel Macron on the sidelines of the G7 summit in Biarritz, amid a heated debate about the fires in the Amazon, which, according to environmentalists, are the result of the policy of Bolsonaro.
