Target: Brazilian Supreme Court, President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, Brazilian Congress
Goal: We call on the Brazilian Supreme Court and government authorities to ensure a fair, transparent, and independent judicial process in the case against Jair Bolsonaro, and to protect Brazil’s democracy from threats of authoritarianism.
Recent events have highlighted the fragility of democracy in Brazil. Former President Jair Bolsonaro, who is currently under house arrest pending trial for alleged coup plotting, has consistently undermined public trust in the electoral process and democratic institutions. Attempts to overturn legitimate election results pose a grave threat to the rule of law and the will of the people.
Despite facing serious charges, Bolsonaro and his supporters continue to spread misinformation and seek to delegitimize the judiciary. International actors, including the former US president, have further inflamed the situation by labeling the proceedings as a 'witch hunt' and imposing punitive tariffs on Brazil, which harms ordinary Brazilians.
We stand with the people of Brazil in demanding justice, transparency, and the protection of democratic values. It is essential that the Supreme Court is allowed to conduct its proceedings free from political interference, intimidation, or international pressure. Upholding accountability for those who attempt to undermine democracy is vital for Brazil’s future and for the global fight against authoritarianism.
Key Demands
- Ensure the Supreme Court proceedings against Jair Bolsonaro are transparent, impartial, and free from political or international interference.
- Protect Brazil’s democratic institutions from attempts to overturn legitimate election results or undermine the rule of law.
- Reject any external pressure, including economic sanctions, that seek to influence Brazil’s judicial process or threaten its sovereignty.
- Guarantee the safety and independence of judges, prosecutors, and all officials involved in upholding democratic accountability.
- Promote public education about the importance of democracy, free elections, and the dangers of authoritarianism.
