Carlos Turdera, Maduro, Lula and Boric
The article discusses the diplomatic dynamics surrounding Lula's visit to Chile amidst the Venezuelan political crisis. Lula's omission of the Venezuelan issue in joint declarations with Chilean President Gabriel Boric is seen as a diplomatic concession and criticized as a sign of weakness. The article highlights the paradoxical reactions in Brazil, where both Lula's and Bolsonaro's parties avoided addressing the Venezuelan situation. The focus on strengthening Brazil-Chile relations through economic agreements is noted, but Lula faces criticism for his perceived ambiguity and lack of decisive foreign policy in regional matters.
Column by Carlos Turdera: Bolsonaro, however, moves...
Over a year after leaving office and facing multiple investigations, Jair Bolsonaro remains influential, drawing large crowds as seen in São Paulo on Sunday 25. Despite being barred from candidacy until 2030, his popularity could impact upcoming mayoral and legislative elections. Bolsonaro's recent demonstration had a strong religious undertone, but it's uncertain if this will translate into votes or affect judicial decisions. Comparisons are drawn to Lula's past imprisonment and subsequent political return. Bolsonaro's future may hinge more on the current government's actions, particularly if Lula fulfills progressive promises, potentially swaying additional votes.
Brazil, with hope and fear
Brazil experienced significant transformations during Bolsonaro's era, marked by various negative phenomena such as environmental degradation and extremism. The end of this period brings a sense of relief, though the country remains divided. Historical adversaries like Geraldo Alckmin and Lula have formed unexpected alliances, highlighting the extent of the political shift. Despite Lula's previous high approval ratings, his return to power is met with mixed sentiments due to the changed political landscape and his time in prison.

Rousseff Mourns for the Brazil That Could Not Be
Brazil's President Dilma Rousseff is facing a crisis of confidence as her administration's approval ratings plummet amidst economic downturns and corruption scandals. The tragic death of Christiano Pereira Tavares, once a symbol of hope and progress under Rousseff's predecessor Lula da Silva, epitomizes the unfulfilled promises and dreams of a more equitable Brazil. Rousseff's government, which lifted millions out of poverty, is now criticized for succumbing to the challenges of inequality, drugs, and lack of opportunities.
