The effort of Rede Globo to give some legitimacy to Temer became a national protest against the unelected leader, said the digital publication of the Communist Party of Brazil (PcdoB).

"Temer out!" and "Plotter!" were the words many shouted from apartment buildings in Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo, Salvador, Belo Horizonte, Porto Alegre, Recife, Fortaleza, Brasilia and Niteroi, among other cities, the website declared. They also displayed images of the protests.

In his interview, the interim president rejected criticisms made against him for appointing a cabinet without women or black people and stated his intention to appoint at least four females in the near future.

He also denied that he will undermine social security rights with his proposed reforms and insisted that he will maintain the social programs implemented over the past 13 years by sucessive governments of the Workers Party.

Regarding a possible nomination for the 2018 presidential elections, he said he had not under any circumstances considered this possibility, but made it clear that this could suddenly change.

The Central of the Workers of Brazil (CTB) denied reports that it will attend a meeting with unionists called for today by acting president, Michel Temer.

"The CTB reiterates that it will not meet with a coup government," said the head of the organization, Adilson Araújo, while discrediting a report published yesterday by the newspaper Estado de Sao Paulo, according to which a representation of this organization would attend the meeting.

According to information from Agencia Brasil, in the interview granted to Rede Globo, the General Union of Workers (UGT) and Fuerza Sindical, among others, were invited to the meeting today.
