A few days passed from the assumption of Lula Da Silva to his third term as president of Brazil after defeating Jair Bolsonaro in the elections by a very narrow margin. Also, the far-right leader did not participate in the official act of transfer of commandwhich further increased the differences between the two sides.
Initially, the demonstrators gathered at the Army Headquarters in Brasilia, and from there they descended towards the Esplanade of the Ministries. In addition, they also entered the building of the Supreme Court of Brazil (STF).
What Bolsonaro’s followers are mainly demanding is a coup d’étatsince they ask for the intervention of the armed forces so that Lula is removed from power.
In social networks, there are already a lot of videos about what is happening, with the militants invading public buildingsshowing their banners with messages against the president who took office a week ago and some military clothing.
In addition, this type of image is undoubtedly reminiscent of what happened on January 6, 2020 in the United States, when supporters of former President Donald Trump took over the Capitol to demand the result of the elections and calling for Joe Biden’s office to be removed.
