VisitBolsonaro Sees Trump's Election as 'Game-Changer,' Seeks Sanctions Against Lula
Nov 29, 2024, 12:02 PM
Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro is seeking to return to power in the 2026 elections and believes that his old friend, U.S. President Donald Trump, will be instrumental in his political comeback. In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Bolsonaro stated that he views Trump's election as a 'game-changer' for his future and for right-wing politicians. He hopes that Trump will assist him, possibly by exerting pressure on the current Brazilian administration led by President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. Bolsonaro has suggested that economic sanctions imposed by the U.S. on Lula's government could help in his bid to regain power.
