Bolsonaro faces a four-decade jail sentence when the supreme court announces its verdict in the coming weeks – proceedings Trump has called a “witch-hunt” and has urged Brazilian authorities to halt.

“What we are doing is something that only happens in democratic countries – judging someone based on evidence collected from witnesses and with complete presumption of innocence.

“And I’ve said to President Trump: If what happened in the Capitol had happened in Brazil, he would be put on trial here in Brazil too,” Lula added, rejecting the idea that there was anything “arbitrary” about Bolsonaro’s trial.

Lula said: “There was really no reason to hit Brazil with tariffs and nor will we accept being told that we don’t respect human rights here in Brazil.

Lula urged Brazilians not to fear the pressure campaign being waged by Trump, who avoided charges over his attempt to overturn the 2020 election after his election last year.

In Brazil, 141 people are serving prison sentences for taking part in the 8 January 2023 rightwing riots in Brasília, which were allegedly part of Bolsonaro’s coup plot.

Humanity has created great things … in times of crisis,” Lula said. »

Maxwell is serving a 20-year sentence after being convicted in 2021 of child sex trafficking and other offenses related to her relationship with Epstein.

It is unclear if the families will ever receive an audience with Trump or other top officials. »
