Jair Messias Bolsonaro (born March 21, 1955) is the president-elect of Brazil. He is a strongly conservative and anti-establishment[1][2][3] former congressman and retired army captain.
Contents
Life and career
Bolsonaro was born in the municipality of Glicério in São Paulo. He is of Italian descent. Bolsonaro served in Brazil's military from 1971 to 1988, graduating from Agulhas Negras Military Academy in 1977. Afterward, he served in Rio de Janeiro's city council from 1989 to 1991, and in Brazil's congress starting in 1991.
Bolsonaro has changed parties several times in his career, something not unusual considering the large number of parties in Brazil, along with the fact that conservative parties in the country tend to be weak. He was a member of the Progressive Party. The most leftist members of that party usually classify it as a PSNN (Progressista Só No Nome - Progressive In Name Only, PLINO). In March 2016, he left PP to join Social Christian Party, and he later joined the Social Liberal Party. All of these parties are conservative or conservative-leaning despite their names.
During the voting of the Dilma Rousseff in the Congress, on April 17, 2016, Bolsonaro dedicated his vote to Brilhante Ustra, the only militair that was declared by the Justice as a "torturer", and who allegedly was the torturer of Rousseff in the 1970s. Jean Wyllys, after he voted, spat on Bolsanaro.[4]
2018 presidential election
Bolsonaro successfully ran for the Brazilian presidency in 2018.[5] He tried in 2014, but the leaders of his party decided to support the Marxist government of Dilma Rousseff. Among the presidential proposals, Bolsonaro called for closing unnecessary ministries (such as Ministry of Finance, which keeps the government in control of the economy, and the Defense Ministry, which creates military subordination to political), the reduction of state in all its spheres, the free market, homeschooling, the neutral point of view in schools, private health, pro-gun rights,[3][6] the prohibition of same-sex "marriage" and abortion. He also ran on a strong anti-corruption program.[3][7][8][9][10][11]
During the 2018 election campaign, Bolsonaro survived an attempted assassination attempt, being stabbed.[12]
Bolsonaro won 46% of the vote in the election's first round, significantly better than polls predicted and less than four percentage points to winning the election outright.[13] His party performed very well in the congressional and gubernatorial elections held the same day.[14] Bolsonaro's campaign had strong momentum going into the runoff,[15] and he received strong support from evangelical Christians.[16]
Bolsonaro won the election runoff with about 55% of the vote, marking a major shift in Brazilian politics.[2][17] He was congratulated by U.S. President Donald Trump[18] and Italian Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini,[19] among others. According to Brazilian professor Dawisson Belém Lopes, Brazil had elected "the most right wing leader of any democracy in the world."[20]
President of Brazil
Among his other actions in preparation for assuming office, Bolsonaro nominated a pro-Trump nationalist to be his foreign minister.[21] He also nominated an evangelical pro-lifer pastor to be his minister in charge of family, women, and indigenous issues.[22] Overall, his cabinet was comprised of conservatives and military men.[23]
Views
In its eighth consecutive term, Jair Bolsonaro is one of the most admired personalities and at the same time one of the most hated in Brazil. Bolsonaro is the most conservative and right-wing politician on the Brazilian political spectrum, and for defending Christian,[24] family,[25] traditional and conservative values, has been falsely labeled by the Brazilian media as "Nazi",[26] "homophobic",[27] "racist",[28] "fascist",[29] "sexist"[30] and "white supremacist". The international mainstream media has also been extremely biased against Bolsonaro.[31] He has been compared to U.S. President Donald Trump and even has the nickname "Tropical Trump."[7][1][32]
Bolsonaro takes strongly pro-life positions.[25][33][24] He supports strong law and order policies on crime.[34] He has a good relationship with Brazil's military.[35]
When he was first elected for the first time, Bolsonaro had a more friendly stance toward economic interventionism. Over the years, however, Bolsonaro has come to strongly support limited government, a free market without bureaucracy, and privatization.[8][36][37][3]
On foreign policy issues, Bolsonaro has voiced support for nationalist policies similar to those of President Trump.[3][38][39] Bolsonaro takes strongly pro-Israel positions,[25][24] supporting moving Brazil's embassy to Jerusalem, something he affirmed he would do after his election,[40][41] and closing the "Palestinian" embassy in Brazil.[42][43] He is seen as a critic of China,[44] Venezuela,[45] and Cuba.[46] However, after his election, he stated that he welcomed increased Chinese investment and trade.[47] Bolsonaro is critical of the globalist Mercosur trade agreement.[48]
Bolsonaro is a critic of the left-wing mainstream media.[49]
While originally pledging to leave the globalist Paris climate agreement, Bolsonaro later retracted that conservative promise.[50]
