Brazil­ian au­thor­i­ties have launched a probe to dis­cov­er who fi­nanced the far-right ef­fort to over­turn the 2022 elec­tion.

In a deeply di­vid­ed coun­try, the far-right out­go­ing pres­i­dent will not slink into the shad­ows, an­a­lysts say.

For the first time in decades, a pres­i­den­tial can­di­date in Brazil has suf­fered an as­sas­si­na­tion at­tempt.

With the cru­cial pres­i­den­tial elec­tions a month away, a Brazil court’s de­ci­sion has dra­mat­i­cal­ly changed the race.
