Babası Jair Bolsonaro da 2022'de eski ABD Başkanı Joe Biden'ın görevde olduğu dönemde Lula'ya yenildiğini reddettikten sonra Amerika Birleşik Devletleri'ne gitmiş, Brezilya'ya döndükten sonra destekçilerinin Brasilia'daki hükümet binalarına baskın düzenlemesinin ardından darbe planlamak suçundan 27 yıl hapis cezasına çarptırılmıştı.

Brazil's left-wing President Lula elected for fourth term Updated October 25, 2026 11:16 PM ET Originally published October 25, 2026 8:35 PM ET Supporters of President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva cheer as the results of Brazil's presidential runoff election are announced in São Paulo on Sunday, Oct.

Natacha Pisarenko/AP hide caption BRASILIA, Brazil — In a stunning political comeback, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has been elected president of Brazil, according to official results from Sunday's runoff election, with more than 96% of the votes counted.

Bolsonaro, 45, had campaigned on closer ties with President Trump and pledged to pardon his father, former President Jair Bolsonaro, who is serving a 27-year sentence under house arrest for plotting a coup to overturn his 2022 election defeat to Lula.

The family was hoping that a win for Flavio Bolsonaro would also help liberate Jair Bolsonaro, Trump’s longtime political ally who is now serving a 27-year-sentence under house arrest after a Brazilian court convicted him of an attempted coup.
