“China isn’t buying in Brazil. China is buying Brazil,” Jair Bolsonaro, the right-wing frontrunner in Brazil’s presidential election, said in an Oct. 9 interview with Band TV, referring to the Latin American nation’s top foreign investor and trade partner.
In the interview, Bolsonaro talked about his privatization pledge, promising that he wouldn’t extend privatization to the core business of oil company Petrobras or the power industry.
