The environmental group Greenpeace “applauds” the election, but warned of difficulties because Lula’s rival and opponent Jair Bolsonaro has the majority in Congress (Parliament). The WWF – as Greenpeace tweeted Monday – pointed to the “very dense” election result, but emphasized that the Brazilians wanted to protect the environment and indigenous peoples.
The Society for Threatened Peoples was “relieved” in a statement about the election results, expressing hopes that Lula “will deliver on his election promises and prioritize strengthening indigenous rights and combating the climate crisis”. (sda)
