Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes, who sentenced former President Jair Bolsonaro to 27 years in prison for a coup attempt, is facing pressure to resign after federal police documents linked him to disgraced banker Daniel Vorcaro. [^1]

In a recent informal voting round conducted by the UN Security Council, Michelle Bachelet received only 2 supportive votes, 6 negative votes, and 7 neutral votes. [^2]

Michelle Bachelet met with Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva in Brasilia on September 1, 2026, to discuss her candidacy for the UN Secretary-General position. [^3]

Federal police documents made public by Justice André Mendonca on 2026-09-02 showed that Daniel Vorcaro, owner of Banco Master, repeatedly sought advice from a person authorities identified as de Moraes. [^4]

Folha de S. Paulo daily said on 2026-09-02 that de Moraes should resign to spare the country's institutions damage, and should be impeached by the Senate if he does not. [^5]

Investigators believe, according to the documents, that Vorcaro acted on different occasions based on advice from de Moraes, and the banker thanked the justice in replies to messages police could not read. [^6]

Before traveling to Brasilia, Michelle Bachelet met with Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum in Mexico City, where both leaders expressed support for her UN bid. [^7]

The Chilean government under President José Antonio Kast withdrew its support for Bachelet's candidacy after she arrived in Santiago. [^8]
