Brazil: Former President Jair Bolsonaro charged in investigation into attempted coup. High-ranking military officials say that the Brazilian ex-president wanted to recruit them for a coup.
The Brazilian federal police accuse the former right-wing head of state and his allies of preparing a coup to stay in power after the election defeat against current President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. Lula narrowly won the vote in October 2022. The witness statements now published by the Brazilian Supreme Court are considered particularly relevant.
