Through official notes and posts on Twitter, many governments and world leaders congratulated Luis Inacio Lula da Silva (PT) on his election to Brazil’s presidency on Sunday night (10/30).

The White House released two letters, one in English and one in Portuguese, on behalf of US President Joe Biden. The text emphasizes the relevance of the Brazilian electoral process: “Congratulations to Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva on his election as the next President of Brazil after a free, fair and credible electoral process. I look forward to working together to continue the cooperation between our two countries in the months and years to come.”

Alberto Fernandez, President of Argentina, posted two photos with Lula and a series of tweets celebrating the victory of the Workers’ Party and Brazilian democracy: “Congratulations, Lula! Your victory opens a new era for Latin American history. A time of hope and a future begins today. Here, you have a partner you work with and you dream big. For the good life of our peoples. After so many injustices I lived through, the people of Brazil elected you, and democracy triumphed.”

The President of Mexico, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, also posted on Twitter a photo with Lula with the caption: “If not for victory, blessed people of Brazil. There will be equality and humanity.”
