Bringing these over from the last thread:
Bolsonaro officially announces his return to Brazil and says that “his mission is not over”
During the speech at the evangelical church Church of All Nations, Bolsonaro said that he was unable to be re-elected “because of the TSE” and that he intends to collaborate with the Brazilian right-wing.
“It is a great satisfaction the way you have treated me anywhere on this globe. This is priceless. Even more so for those who, at least before the TSE, were unable to be re-elected. We all have a mission here on Earth, my mission is not over yet. It doesn’t matter what happens to me here or in Brazil,” he said.
On his intention to collaborate with the right-wing leadership in the country, he said: “At the moment we don’t have a leadership from the national right. We have regional. These people are growing. We will get stronger. We will be back. Our vocation is to be more than an extension, in fact, a great nation. Look what Israel doesn’t have, and see what they are. Look what we have, and what we are not.”

Checked: Itamaraty is unaware of the alleged recommendation for Brazilians to leave Russia and Belarus; however, they definitively choose a side and leave the scenario of abstention
A source from the Brazilian Ministry of Foreign Affairs told Sputnik Brasil this Monday (13) that the Itamaraty has no information about an alleged official recommendation for Brazilians to leave Russia and Belarus as soon as possible.
This afternoon, reports appeared on social networks that the Brazilian Embassy had warned its citizens to leave these two countries as soon as possible, without mentioning the reason. No information on the subject was disclosed in official channels of the Brazilian diplomatic service. Reports emailed to Brazilian citizens in Russia were likely false.
On the other hand, the Itamaraty under Lula’s government took a stand against Russia and says that Brazil will now side with the United States on the issue involving the war in Ukraine.
This was the first position taken by Itamaraty that came out of the ‘peaceful and impartial’ scenario.

Agribusiness will not pay the tax reform bill, says agriculture leader in Congress
Federal deputy Pedro Lupion (PP-PR) criticized the proposal for tax reform on consumption by the government of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT). The politician assumed command of the Agricultural Parliamentary Front (FPA), which holds the greatest unitary control of the National Congress.
Lupion is categorical in stating that agribusiness will not foot the bill for an eventual tax increase after the reform. “I think this bill cannot be paid by the agro and we are not going to let that happen”, he said in an interview.
“It is obvious that if there is any type of loss, an increase in taxes on Brazilian agribusiness, we will react head-on and we have the numbers for that”, said Lupion.
Historically, in numbers, the Bolsonaro Government imposed one of the highest profits for the agribusiness sector in Brazil
