"What is the problem? I don't understand... it's the symbol of the Workers' Party of Brazil, the party of the current President Lula."

Victor Garcia stated that, in a potential government of Flávio, Lula would be the main name of the opposition, not the PT. He imagined that Lula could travel to China to talk with Xi Jinping and to Russia and the United States to dialogue with the Democrats, should they win the majority in Congress. Garcia assessed that Flávio would not have an easy time in the international scenario. According to him, the moral barriers to seeking external support and justifying interventions would have fallen after the adversaries themselves established this logic. In the author's view, Lula could influence the country's direction more as an opposition leader than in government, if he were conditioned by a Congress dominated by them. #Política #Brasil #Lula (translated)

Juan Doe asked if the students of International Relations, analysts, and specialized journalists would acknowledge having made mistakes and congratulate Javier Milei. He wrote that Milei had supported Donald Trump when, according to him, he was in a weak political situation and the polls favored his rivals, and attributed his subsequent crushing victory to that bet. He also maintained that Milei had backed Flavio Bolsonaro even though his father, Jair Bolsonaro, was imprisoned and disqualified and his brother Eduardo was in exile. He added that those advising Milei to get close to Lula believed that he would remain in power for four more years, but now he considered him practically a political corpse. Doe described that strategy as "buying at the floor" and stated that if someone else had made those bets, they would have been called a visionary. He said he had not heard any acknowledgments from analysts or journalists and asked if they would have the humility to admit their mistakes. #RelacionesInternacionales #Geopolítica #AnálisisPolítico (translated)

David Alandete reported that Democratic senators Jeanne Shaheen, Jack Reed, Martin Heinrich, and Elizabeth Warren warned in a letter dated September 30 to Marco Rubio, Pete Hegseth, and Chris Wright that the oil agreement with Betancourt may lack a clear legal basis for enforcing some of its provisions. The four lawmakers, the leading Democrats on the Foreign Relations, Armed Services, Energy, and Banking committees, pointed out that the law that created the Department of Defense's Strategic Capital Office allows for the granting and guaranteeing of loans but does not expressly authorize the purchase of stakes in private oil companies. According to the public documentation they cited, the agreement provides for a 35% U.S. equity stake in the parent company of NABEP. The senators also questioned what authority would allow the State Department to commit to long-term oil purchases. They requested that the Government identify the laws upon which both operations would be based, explain the source of the funds, and deliver the complete text of the agreement before its final approval. In addition, they requested information regarding the prior investigation of Betancourt and any potential economic benefits for Trump, his family, donors, or current or former officials of his Administration. Alandete noted that the lawmakers threatened to undertake legislative and legal actions and that the legal structure was one of the obstacles to launching the project. #Política #Energía #Legislación (translated)
