An international attack is underway to pressure the Joe Biden government to recognize the results of the October presidential election in Brazil. A letter signed by politicians, academics and personalities from around the world will be delivered to the head of the White House in the coming days.
The manifesto by Jair Bolsonaro aims to block the possibility of an eventual democratic break in Brazil having the support of international or US governments.
In addition to the initiative, the largest American universities are planning events throughout September to discuss the political crisis in Brazil and send a clear message of support for democracy. Some of the world’s greatest academic centers, such as Harvard University, Brown and Princeton, are mobilizing to encourage discussions and seminars on the state of Brazil and threats to democracy.
The organizer of the initiative, academic James Green, also stated that around 50 events will take place around the world in September to try to create an international awareness of the risks Brazil is currently facing.
Green is currently the coordinator of the US Democracy Network in Brazil and Chairman of the Washington Brazil Office.
In addition to the USA, conferences are held in France, Spain, Germany, Portugal and Latin American countries. The attack was dubbed “International Month to Defend Democracy in Brazil, September”.
