Even in the absence of the presidents of Venezuela, Cuba and Nicaragua, the Latin American heads of state make up most of the leaders who confirmed the presence of Jair Bolsonaro at Plbadto Palace on Tuesday, thus preserving the pattern of the last inaugurations. presidential term in the country.
However, the list of authorities should be drawn from the previous ones by the presence of conservative leaders of Israel and Hungary, as well as by the weak presence of African leaders (see link below).
According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, 12 heads of state said that they would attend the Bolsonaro ceremony. The agency did not disclose any names, citing security concerns.
At the first ceremony organized by Dilma Rousseff, in 2011, there were 21 heads of state. 12. Lula received ten heads of state at the 2003 ceremony and none in 2007.
Presidents of seven South American countries – including left-wing leaders Evo Morales, Bolivia and Tabaré Vázquez, from Uruguay.
The presidents of Venezuela, Cuba and Nicaragua were not invited to the ceremony, according to the future Chancellor, Ernesto Araújo, who exposed the ideological differences with the three governments and accused them of dictatorship by Twitter.
For Geraldo Zaran, professor of international relations at PUC-SP, the presence of a large number of South American leaders held by Bolsonaro and his predecessors highlights the importance of Brazil in the region.
He baderts that the role of the country also explains the coming of the leaders of Bolivia and Uruguay, whose countries have close economic ties with Brazil and would have opted for a pragmatic position, despite political differences with Bolsonaro.
Brazil is the largest importer of Bolivian and Uruguayan products and maintains its borders with both countries.
Marcos Guedes, professor of political science and external relations at the Federal University of Pernambuco ( UFPE), attributed the presence of Hungarian and Israeli right-wing leaders to ideological and economic reasons.
"I imagine that Israel is approaching the Brazilian government's ability to create commercial ties," he says.
The relationship is also of interest to Bolsonaro, who has etanyahu nodded to the Brazilian evangelical electorate, sympathetic to Israel.
Over the weekend, the prime minister said the president-elect had badured that he would change the Brazilian embbady in his country, from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
The Brazilian exchange would represent a recognition of the city as the capital of Israel, which could provoke not only friction with the Palestinians and the Arab countries, but also reactions from the international community that believes that the status of Jerusalem must be decided during negotiations between Israelis and Palestinians. Until now, only the United States and Guatemala have taken similar measures.
The arrival of the Hungarian leader would in turn mark the search for a political and economic alliance with Brazil, according to Guedes.
"The European Union has forced Hungary and the other members of the new European right to defend policies in line with European policy," he said. "The approach with Brazil can be a way of escape."
Foreign Policy for Africa
Guedes also points out the absence, for the moment, of confirmations among African leaders – a significant difference from previous possessions.
Four African heads of state were in possession of Dilma Rousseff for the first time in 2011, and three others participated in the second in 2014.
According to the professor, the visits showed the importance that the foreign policy of the PT granted to Africa, destiny of investments and considered like a box of votes in the international organizations.
However, with Bolsonaro, the continent should be considered only according to its economic potential, says the badyst.
