  "account": "Brazilian right-wing Senator Flavio Bolsonaro, the front-runner in the upcoming presidential election, has vowed to respect the outcome of the October vote. In an interview on TV Globo's Jornal Nacional, the eldest son of former President Jair Bolsonaro assured that he seeks to be elected fairly under current electoral rules. Jair Bolsonaro is currently serving a 27-year prison sentence for attempting to overturn the 2022 election result that saw leftist President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva win. Flavio Bolsonaro's father was convicted by Brazil's Supreme Court in September for plotting a coup after his 2022 defeat. The senator expressed his intention to grant amnesty to those convicted for the January 2023 riot in Brasilia, where supporters of his father invaded and ransacked key government buildings. He also distanced himself from the US government's decision to impose tariffs on Brazilian goods, citing alleged unfair trade practices. The tariffs were eventually lifted.",
  "summary": "His father, former president Jair Bolsonaro, was convicted last September for plotting a coup to remain in power after losing the 2022 elections.",
