Lula wins fourth term as Brazil president after historic upset over far-right Flávio Bolsonaro

Brazil's left‑leaning president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva secured a fourth term, defeating far‑right candidate Flávio Bolsonaro in a runoff that reversed an earlier first‑round loss. The victory marks an unprecedented comeback for Lula, who previously served two terms, and signals a shift in Brazil's political landscape as the electorate favored continuity over the Bolsonaro family’s agenda.
