🇧🇷 Brazil Runoff Right Consolidates

Brazilian right-wing Senator Flavio Bolsonaro said Thursday that author-psychiatrist Augusto Cury, who finished third in Sunday’s first-round election, endorsed Jair Bolsonaro for the October 25 runoff against leftist President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, according to Reuters.

The immediate takeaway is straightforward: Brazil’s right is trying to unify before the runoff. In the region’s largest state, that matters beyond campaign optics. Political weakness in Brasília tends to ripple outward, creating more room for criminal networks, border disorder, and strategic drift across Latin America.
