Eletronuclear: director accused of racism and harassment; TCU gives 240 days on Angra 3
What happened
Two separate stories involve Eletronuclear, Brazil's state nuclear power company. O Globo reports that a company director, accused of racism and harassment, has filed a criminal complaint against the people who reported him. The TCU (federal audit court) has given the government 240 days to decide Angra 3's future.
When it started
The reports appear to be from October 2026, based on the article links. The sources do not give exact publication times.
How it spread
According to O Globo, the director's complaint is a queixa-crime against whistleblowers. The accusations against him are alleged, and the reports do not describe any ruling. For Angra 3, Valor Econômico and Poder360 both report that the TCU set a 240-day deadline for the government and the CNPE (National Energy Policy Council) to decide.
Why it matters
Eletronuclear runs Brazil's nuclear plants, including Angra 1 and 2, and Angra 3 is an unfinished reactor. The TCU decision sets a timeline for a decision on whether to complete it. The reports do not say what the decision will be, or whether the director's complaint has been accepted by authorities.
