China part of the solutions not part of Brazil's problems
In his inaugural address on Tuesday, Brazil's new President Jair Bolsonaro elaborated on domestic problems as he vowed to rescue South America's largest and most populous country from "corruption, criminality and ideological submission "during his term. "We will re-establish order," he declared.
Brazil suffers from infamously high homicide rate - more than 63,000 people were killed last year - is enduring a slow recovery from a prolonged recession, and has an increasingly polarized society between the left and the right. Bolsonaro faces mounting challenges if he wants to deliver on his campaign promise to bring big changes to the world's eighth-largest economy.
That's why many analysts predict that the outspoken leader, who will have to act rationally and pragmatically once in office, may have to backpedal on some issues despite his inflammatory rhetoric on the campaign trail.
