    Brazil: Bolsonaro wins backing from third-place finisher in first round

    Augusto Cury, who finished third in the first round of Brazil’s presidential election, has announced his support for right-wing candidate Flavio Bolsonaro ahead of the runoff against incumbent President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.

    Bolsonaro, the son of former president Jair Bolsonaro, will face Lula on October 25 after none of the candidates secured more than 50% of the vote in the first round.
