Poll: Brazilians want Lula to play nice with Chavez & Bush

An opinion poll released yesterday showed that a majority of Brazilians want president Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva to have cordial relations with Hugo Chavez and George W. Bush. However, the poll conducted by Instituto Datafolha showed that nearly 1 in 5 respondents support Lula keeping a distance relationship from the leaders of Venezuela and the U.S.

Since being elected as Brazil’s president in October 2002, Lula has conducted close relations with both Chavez and Bush. It’s no wonder that Lula is one of the most popular leaders when compared to others.
