CNBB President Jaime Spengler criticizes Judiciary politicization

CNBB Jaime Spengler Judiciary Supreme Federal Court Brazil politics

Cardinal Jaime Spengler, president of the National Conference of Bishops of Brazil (CNBB), has criticized the perceived 'politicization' within Brazil's Superior Courts. During a meeting with journalists in Brasília, Spengler described the current relationship between the three branches of government as delicate and tense.

He emphasized that the Judiciary must function as a balancer, making decisions strictly based on the Constitution. Spengler also noted that the Catholic Church holds a responsibility to address issues affecting the country and will not remain silent on matters involving its core values.

The CNBB previously issued a statement on September 10 expressing concern regarding the Supreme Federal Court (STF) and called for investigations into recent events to ensure all actors remain subject to the law.
