#Bolsonaro spoke but made no mention of the election results. He did not acknowledge #Lula's victory. He instructed a spokesman to speak about the transition. Nor did he ask protesters to withdraw.

In his speech, #Bolsonaro reaffirmed the values he considers his: God, Homeland, family, and freedom. And he's cynically attacked #Lula's left wing, saying that property invasion is their method, not that of the far right.

One encouraging element in #Bolsonaro's address is that he has stated that he will act within the constitutional framework. I would add that this is the very least we should expect from the President of a democratic Country. Let transition begin now.

CNN #Brazil reports that #Bolsonaro's statement was perceived by his supporters as an encouragement to continue the unrest — as he said he (they) lost the battle, but not the war.
