Available for over a year

President Luiz In谩cio Lula da Silva has vowed to punish supporters of the country's ex-leader, Jair Bolsonaro, after they stormed Congress and other government buildings on Sunday. Security forces have detained more than 1,500 people so far. We've brought together three Brazilians to hear what they have to say about the attacks and what it means for politics in their country. Tony Goes is a columnist at Folha de Sao Paulo, Daniel Calarco is a lawyer in Rio and Sofia Silva is an analyst at a Rio consultancy firm. (Photo: Protesters invade Brazil's Congress building.
