Flávio Bolsonaro vows to 're-democratise' Brazil after surprise first-round win

Flávio Bolsonaro, far-right frontrunner, won a surprise first-round victory in Brazil's presidential election and has vowed to 're-democratise' the country, a term critics interpret as a move toward authoritarian rule. The win marks a rapid rise for the Bolsonaro political dynasty, continuing his father Jair's legacy of praising Brazil's past military dictatorship. The outcome raises concerns about democratic backsliding in Latin America's largest economy, though the full implications depend on the runoff and subsequent policy actions.
