President Lula da Silva speaks of his desire to defeat 'new monster' that is 'fanatical far right,' not just in Brazil but throughout the world
President Lula da Silva says he has never before seen his country"gripped by so much hate", blaming ex-leader Bolsonaro for chaos and hate politics.
"We have to challenge and defeat the new monster that is the emergence of a fanatical, rabid far-right that hates all of those that don't share their thoughts," Lula told university rectors at the presidential palace in Brasilia on Thursday. At 77, Lula is now serving his third term as president, having previously led Latin America's largest economy from 2003-10.
