Since President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva was elected in the second round, at the end of October, supporters of former President Jair Bolsonaro have demonstrated their dissatisfaction with the result of the election and have called for a military coup in the country to overthrow the democratically elected government.
The demonstrations of the last few months included encampments in several general headquarters in the country and culminated in the invasion and depredation of the headquarters of the Three Powers, in Brasília, on January 8th.
