Lula is re-sworn as the President of Brazil
Lula da Silva sworn in as Brazil’s new president. 77-year-old Lula da Silva was sworn in as Brazil’s president for the third time.
Addressing the crowd, Lula da Silva said after vowing to take steps to rebuild Brazil and eradicate poverty.
After the swearing-in, the late Brazilian soccer star remained silent in mourning for Pele and the late Pope Benedict XVI.
The Brazilian presidential election was held last October. Czar Bolzarano, who was in the position of president, once again ran for the presidency in the hope of the presidency.
Lula de Silva, who led the main opposition Workers’ Party, won the presidential election after a fierce battle.
Bolzarano was reluctant to accept the results of the presidential election. However, in the end he had to accept defeat.
When Lula da Silva was sworn in, Bolzarano was on his way to the US state of Florida. Lula da Silva was the President of Brazil from 2003 to 2010.
