Brazil’s lower house President Eduardo Cunha is downplaying concerns that his decision to abandon the government alliance will worsen the country’s economic turmoil.

“I don’t have a history of helping to create chaos in the economy through measures that put public accounts at risk,” Cunha wrote on his Twitter account Saturday. “As president of the lower house, I will continue to behave as I’ve always done.”
