Brazilian police used tear gas canisters on Sunday (January 8th) to try to repel hundreds of supporters of far-right ex-president Jair Bolsonaro who stormed outside Congress in Brasilia, a week after the president's inauguration from left Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, noted an AFP photographer.
The area around the Congress had been cordoned off by the authorities, but the Bolsonarists who refuse to accept the election of Lula managed to break the security cordons and several dozen of them managed to climb the ramp of this building with modern architecture to occupy the roof.
