Democracy under threat: The storming of Brazil’s National Congress

Just over a year ago we watched as reports of an assault on the capitol rolled in from the US.

More recently, thousands of far-right supporters of former Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro stormed the country’s National Congress, Supreme Court and presidential palace. The protests were seemingly well organised and financed by supporters of Bolsonaro and his extreme right-wing agenda.

University of Western Australia international relations expert Flavia Bellieni Zimmermann joined Pamela Boland for On The Record to explain the upheaval and what the attacks tell us about Democracy in Brazil.
