Trump-Aligned Leaders Lose in Brazil and Serbia; Netanyahu Faces Tough Vote

timesnownews.com —

Trump-aligned leaders suffered defeats in Brazil and Serbia on Sunday, while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, another Trump ally, faces a tough election Tuesday. Brazilian voters rejected a Bolsonaro comeback, and Serbia's ruling party lost to a student-led opposition. In Brazil, leftist President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva defeated Flávio Bolsonaro, son of imprisoned former President Jair Bolsonaro, who refused to concede and called for annulment. In Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić admitted defeat, ending a run of conservative wins in Latin America and following Hungary's ouster of Viktor Orbán in April. Netanyahu, 77, trails in polls ahead of Tuesday's vote, with his bloc projected to win only 50 of 120 Knesset seats, short of the 61 needed. The election's outcome could influence Trump's Middle East actions, including potential escalation in Iran.
