However, it does seek to exert more control, particularly on those that work in the Amazon, on the grounds of establishing a more \u201ccoordinated and organized\u201d interaction.<\/p>\n<p>The signatory organizations note that the relationship between social organizations and the State is already regulated and supported by the Federal Constitution and by the Regulatory Framework for Civil Society Organizations. For this reason, they ask the European Parliament to continue to help monitoring the situation of Brazilian democracy.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color:
