Brazil President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva spoke on Thursday of his desire to defeat the “new monster” that is the “fanatical far right,” not just in his country but throughout the whole world.

BRASILIA, Brazil —

At 77, Lula is now serving his third term as president having previously led Latin America’s largest economy from 2003-10. Lula said this was “not only a Brazilian problem” but said he had never before seen the country “gripped by so much hate.” “Although we have defeated Bolsonaro, we must still defeat hate, lies, disinformation, fanatics, because this society needs to return to being civilized.”
