Rubio’s choice is evidence of a political component, but the game has begun
Sources circulating in Washington say that, in recent months, Trump and Rubio came under the false impression that it was enough to put pressure on the STF and the Brazilian Congress for Bolsonaro to be amnestied and win the next elections, given his supposed “immense” popular support.
This was what the two heard through emissaries from federal deputy Eduardo Bolsonaro (PL-SP) and influencer Paulo Figueiredo.
Thanks to contacts with the Brazilian private sector, today they are better informed about political reality.
It is also necessary to better understand who Marco Rubio is and his “made in Florida” foreign policy.
A skilled politician with his own electoral ambitions, he works in favor of Cubans and Venezuelans exiled in the United States and will not do anything against his base.
Because of this, Rubio is certainly not sympathetic to Lula’s gestures in favor of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro, but does his agenda coincide with that of Bolsonarism?
