Brazil’s current president is claiming voter fraud in the presidential election which took place last month.

On Tuesday, Jair Bolsonaro challenged the election he lost last month to socialist Lula Da Silva. Bolsonaro is claiming that votes from some machines should be considered invalidated. According to the final tally of the election, Da Silva received more than 60 million votes, the most amount of votes recorded in Brazilian history. Silva even broke his own vote record from 2006.

The Head of the Superior Electoral Court said that Bolsonaro must present audits for both rounds of the vote within 24 hours of challenging it.

Liberal party leader Valdemar Costa Neto has argued the results should be analyzed by the Superior Electoral Court.

“This report does not express the opinion of the Liberal Party but is the result of studies prepared by specialists who graduated from one of the most respected universities in the world and which, in our understanding, should be analyzed by the TSE (Superior Electoral Court) specialists,” Neto said.

Though Bolsonaro has not conceded the election, he has announced preparations for a presidential transition for January 1st, when Lula is due to be inaugurated as president.

Currently, Brazil’s political climate is polarized as the country has been struggling with high inflation, limited growth and rising poverty.

Kim Jong-un’s sister issued a dire warning to the United States over a U.N. proposal to probe the country’s ballistic missile program. This warning comes after U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, flew to Japan and South Korea for security talks.

“We take this opportunity to warn the new U.S. administration trying hard to give off [gun] powder smell in our land,” Kim Yo-jong said in an English translation carried by the state-run Korean Central News Agency.

On Tuesday, Kim Yo-jong warned that Washington D.C. will face a “more fatal security crisis” if the Biden administration pushes the world to condemn North Korea’s recent tests.

The statement came after America’s ambassador to the U.N. Linda Thomas-Greenfield read a statement from more than a dozen countries, taking aim at North Korea.

“We invite all member states to join us in condemning the DPRK as unlawful ballistic missile launches and call for full, full implementation of the existing security council resolutions,” Thomas-Greenfield. “We also urge the DPRK to abandon its unlawful weapons programs and a complete, verifiable and irreversible manner.”

Kim’s sister went on to say that “no matter how desperately the U.S. seeks to disarm North Korea, it will never deprive its right to self-defense.” The U.S. has made multiple attempts to start talks with North Korea but has had no success.
