President Lula will create the Special Commission on the Dead and Disappeared
Lula, th president of Brazil, will recreate the Special Commission on the Dead and Disappeared. This commission was dissolved at the end of 2022, during Jair Bolsonaro’s government.
Lula, from the Workers’ Party (PT), promised to do this during his campaign. Families of victims of the military dictatorship (1964-1985) pressured him to fulfill this promise since he began his third term.
Lula’s decision will be published in the Official Gazette of the Union this Thursday (4th).
