Brazilian presidential candidate Flávio Bolsonaro decried what he characterized as a prevailing culture of “political persecution” within the nation’s government, which he said was particularly directed against conservatives.
“Brazil is not going through an easy moment. We don’t have a healthy democracy in our country,” Bolsonaro, son of the embattled former president of Brazil, told EpochTV’s Jan Jekeliek in an interview. “There is a lot of political persecution, especially against those on the right, symbolized by President Jair Bolsonaro, the greatest victim of this lawfare.”
