The protests of the truck drivers that took place after the electoral victory of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva a Brazilis maintained this Wednesday but they are losing strength, after Jair Bolsonaro asked them to desist in the attitude.

The roadblocks, which reached about 500 in 24 of the country’s 27 states last Monday, had dropped to 167in which the police negotiated with the demonstrators to completely clear the traffic.

The movement, which is calling for “military intervention”, has begun to do so lose intensity after President Bolsonaro finished admitting his defeat causing the government to begin the transition process with Lula’s team.

Anyway, small groups of truckers kept part of the blockssome protesters held “vigils” last night in front of the army barracks and called for similar acts for this Wednesday, a celebration in Brazil for the Day of the Dead.

Bolsonaro ruled on Tuesday’s election results, some 45 hours after the official tally had established the progressive leader’s victory by a very narrow 1.8 percentage point margin.

While Bolsonaro was silent, his most extreme sympathizers initiated the movement that demands from the Armed Forces to military coupto “close” Parliament and the Supreme Court but keep the current ruler in power.

However, the coup conspirators were not authorized by Bolsonaro himself in his statement, despite affirming that the “popular movement” was “the result of indignation and a feeling of injustice over the way the electoral process unfolded”.

Even so, Bolsonaro asserted that “peaceful demonstrations will always be welcome”, but reiterated that his methods “cannot be leftist ones, which have always damaged the population, such as property invasion or heritage destruction” , and stressed that no one can prevent “the right to come and go”.
