  • Friends of the Earth Latin America and the Caribbean (ATALC) views the presidency of Jair Bolsonaro as a representation of the "ultra-derecha fascista" in the continent and argues that his political strategy threatens historically won rights and liberties, thereby delegitimizing his exercise of democracy.
  • The document asserts that Bolsonaro's victory will accelerate the militarization of politics and territories and increase violence against activists and defenders of people's rights, continuing a trend of dismantling social policies that began with the 2016 coup against Dilma Rousseff.
  • The statement claims that transnational corporate interests, specifically from the oil and agribusiness sectors, collaborated with national elites and the 2016 coup to install Michel Temer and maintain a conservative neoliberal model.
  • ATALC suggests that the electoral victory of fascism in Brazil increases the risk of a US-led military invasion of Venezuela, which the document states is supported behind the scenes by the Colombian right-wing government.
  • In response to the regional political climate, ATALC calls for the creation of an international antifascist front to fight for environmental, social, economic, and gender justice.
