The center-right political parties União Brasil and Progressistas have officially announced their support for Flávio Bolsonaro in the upcoming second round of the Brazilian presidential elections. The announcement, made on Tuesday in Rio de Janeiro, consolidates a significant legislative bloc behind the candidate, as the two parties collectively hold 87 seats in the Chamber of Deputies and six seats in the Senate.
