Brazil’s candidacy was proposed last November, and last week it received the support of the presidency of the Group of Latin American and Caribbean Countries (GRULAC), an essential step in the process.
The group represents the region at the UN. Meanwhile, Bolsonaro has threatened to withdraw not only from the Paris Agreement, but from the UN itself, and to eliminate the Ministry of the Environment.
