military all supported in this 2022 event that they pulled off, that government was,
this like left-wing sort of communist, socialist communist type government, highly aligned with China, pledged on the campaign trail to join Brazil up with the China Belt and Road.

that in Brazil, you have to use this type of fuel and you can't use these sort of more hydrocarbon-based fuel alternatives.
