Prezidențiale pe muchie de cuțit în Brazilia, după surpriza din primul tur: Nou mandat pentru Da Silva sau victorie a prietenului lui Trump?

Brazil is heading for a tight presidential runoff between leftist Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and right-wing Flavio Bolsonaro, following a surprising first round. Bolsonaro's unexpected lead has raised concerns about a shift towards conservatism in Latin America, potentially aligning Brazil closer to the U.S. A Bolsonaro victory would continue the trend of right-wing candidates in the region, while Lula's win would disappoint Washington due to past conflicts. The campaign has been marked by corruption scandals and economic anxiety, with both candidates addressing issues like crime and living costs. Polls indicate a near tie, but history favors Bolsonaro, who led in the first round with 47% to Lula's 45%.
