Lula and Bolsonaro spar in Brazil’s fiery first presidential run-off debate

Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and right-wing Senator Flávio Bolsonaro traded personal attacks in their first debate, a week before the presidential run-off. The candidates called each other liars, exchanged corruption accusations and clashed over public security and healthcare. Lula pressed Flávio Bolsonaro to explain an investigation involving his father, former President Jair Bolsonaro, while Flávio raised a potential case involving one of Lula’s sons. Flávio Bolsonaro led the first round with 47 percent of the vote, compared with Lula’s 45 percent.
