- In this week’s #Forum2000online Chat, Bernardo Sorj, director of the Edelstein Center for Social Research and Democratic Platform Project, joined Jessica Ludwig, Senior Program Officer of the International Forum for Democratic Studies at the National Endowment for Democracy (ned.org), to talk about the ongoing crisis in Ukraine from a Brazilian perspective. In the interview, Dr. Sorj explains what are the perceptions and positions of the government, politicians, public intellectuals and citizens. The war has provoked discussion and a political divide that can be seen in the media and in public debate. Dr. Sorj says that President Bolsonaro "has clearly, always, a fatal attraction for authoritarian leaders, authoritarian social movements" and does not take a clear position, but, at the same time, the minister in charge of foreign relations takes a position against Russian invasion. This makes the government look erratic and contradictory. In addition, he states that "both part of the left and the extreme right, the position is, I wouldn’t say pro-Russian but anti-American”.
The interview was recorded on March 18, 2022, and moderated by Jessica Ludwig, Senior Program Officer of the International Forum for Democratic Studies at the National Endowment for Democracy (ned.org)

everyone who solves their problems, this is Brazil's vision. Brazil does not support wars or take sides, we welcome refugees, we do not express an opinion on the conflict.
let's see what you will sing in a year. From today :)
@@user-co9ts4do3k7 months and nothing happened.
Deal with your own problems please.
I dont see why we should help Ukraine at all, we have our own problems to deal with we are not going to buy a pointless war with the russians we are not crazy we know how to negotiate
Brasil is NOT pro Russia.....
This "little" speech about authoritarianism is misleading....
The speaker misrepresenting Bolsonaro...
This speculation about Boldonaro is worthless if you are concerned about truth...this is wothlesd
@Sam89 . No, I am not with Russia! And I don't have to choose between two equally bad options either. Putin's government chose to invade another country "weaker" than Russian Federation and kill innocent civilians, children and elderly included. No, I cannot "be with Russia"! We are "watching" Christian values being attacked, even physically attacked, by authoritarian forces who want to enslave the whole planet. It is clash Good and Evil...
Bolsonaro is authoritarian, not pro Russian. He is pro-US, but only when the US doesn't push for environmental accountability
