The presidential transition of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's second presidency began on November 2, 2022,[2] and will remain active until the inauguration on January 1, 2023. The vice president-elect Geraldo Alckmin was appointed as the chair of Lula's transition team on November 1, 2022.[3]
Background
Following the results of the 2022 Brazilian general election on October 30, president-elect Lula's campaign team expressed concern about incumbent president Jair Bolsonaro's 44-hour delay in recognizing the results of the polls and authorize the start of the government transition. The green light was given only on November 2 by Bolsonaro's Chief of Staff of the Presidency, Ciro Nogueira.[4]
