Lula’s victory returns him to power after a campaign centered on his record of reducing poverty and inequality, despite past corruption scandals. His opponent, Flavio Bolsonaro, sought to extend the political movement associated with his father, former president Jair Bolsonaro. The result is likely to shape Brazil’s domestic economic and social agenda while influencing its regional diplomacy and broader alignment on international issues.
