Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Geraldo Alckmin were inaugurated as 39th President of Brazil and 26th Vice President of Brazil, respectively, on 1 January 2023, in a ceremony held in the National Congress in Brasília, beginning the third Lula administration. At the age of 77, Lula became the oldest president-elect to assume office and the only president in Brazilian history to serve two non-consecutive terms in office through the democratic vote.[1]
Background
On 2 October, the day of the first round of voting in the 2022 general election, Lula placed first with 48.43% of the valid votes, with which he qualified for a runoff against incumbent Jair Bolsonaro, who garnered 43.20% of the valid votes.[2] Lula was elected in the second round on 30 October, making him Brazil's first three-term president and the first since Getúlio Vargas to be elected for a non-consecutive term. He was inaugurated on 1 January 2023.[3] In break with tradition, outgoing president Jair Bolsonaro did not attend his successor’s inauguration and instead left Brazil for the U.S. state of Florida two days before the ceremony.[4]
Inaugural events
The presidential inauguration ceremony took place in and outside the National Congress building. The president-elect and the vice-president-elect paraded in a Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith from Brasília Cathedral to the National Congress building, where the presidential swearing-in oath took place.[5] The Brazilian Senate TV channel as well as major Brazilian TV channels such as TV Globo, Bandeirantes and SBT broadcast the inauguration ceremony.[6]
Foreign attendance
Lula's third inauguration was attended by the largest number of foreign leaders at a presidential inauguration in Brazil's history, beating the current record held by Lula himself in his first inauguration as president back in 2003.[7] Lula's third inauguration was also attended by more foreign leaders, heads of State and heads of Government than the Rio Olympic Games in 2016.[8]
