In Brazil, far-right President Jair Bolsonaro has ordered the Army to commemorate the U.S.-backed military coup in 1964 that ushered in two decades of dictatorship. Bolsonaro said generals should organize celebrations across Brazil on March 31—which will mark the 55th anniversary of the coup. Under military rule, Brazil’s media was widely censored, and political dissidents faced death, exile and torture. Despite this, Bolsonaro’s spokesperson said in a statement Tuesday, “[T]he president does not consider what happened March 31, 1964, a military coup.” Meanwhile, Bolsonaro’s predecessor, former President Michel Temer, was released from jail on Monday after a judge overturned his “preventative detention” while he faces corruption charges. Temer was arrested last Thursday and charged with leading an embezzlement and money laundering scheme. Temer took power after his predecessor Dilma Rousseff was impeached in what many critics called a “legislative coup.”
