💨 Abstract

Brazil's Supreme Court sentenced former President Jair Bolsonaro to 27 years in prison for alleged coup plotting. The charge involved a failed attempt to overthrow Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva after the 2022 election. Bolsonaro's defense plans to appeal. The verdict has stirred political tensions, drawing reactions from former U.S. President Donald Trump and sparking international disputes, including U.S. sanctions and tariffs against Brazil.
