The Prosecutor's Office of the country suspects him of corruption. As reported by Brazilian media, the reason for suspicion was the video recording at the court's disposal.

On her, Temer allegedly agrees bribe for the silence of the former speaker of the lower house of the parliament of Brazil, Eduardo Cunha, who is serving a prison term for taking part in corrupt deals.

At the same time, the Socialist People's Party has already announced that it is withdrawing from the ruling coalition led by Temer. In the country's parliament, there are already three deputy requests to start impeachment procedures for the president.

At the same time, Temer himself denies the fact of bribery and stated that he does not intend to resign.

Recall, in May 2016 deputies of the Senate of Brazil voted to remove from the post of President of the country Dilma Russef. She was also accused of corruption. The duties of the head of state were then appointed by the vice-president of Brazil Michel Temer.

As reported URA-Inform, the Senate of Brazil, just two hours after the impeachment of Dilma Russef appointed Temer Presidents of the countries. Chairman of the Federal Senate Renan Kaleirus announced the assumption of the office of President of the Federal Republic of Brazil Michel Temer for the period from August 31, 2016 to December 31, 2018.
