尔·卡瓦略弗拉维奥·博尔索纳罗在巴西总统选举首轮中爆冷取得佳绩,使其有望加入一股推动拉丁美洲更靠拢华盛顿的保守派领导人浪潮。他对此表示,如果当选巴西总统,他将与美国和中国同时开展合作。
Flávio Bolsonaro said he would work with the US and China if he becomes Brazil’s president, after a surprise election performance left him poised to join a wave of conservative leaders pushing Latin America closer to Washington.
博尔索纳罗周四在巴西利亚的一场活动上说:“我不会选边站队。我的立场将是巴西人民,无论我们是与中国、以色列、中东、阿根廷还是印度打交道。这都不重要。这就是我将采取的执政方式。”在周日举行的巴西总统选举首轮投票中,博尔索纳罗的得票率领先于现任总统路易斯·伊纳西奥·卢拉·达席尔瓦,这使他成为10月25日决胜轮投票前的领跑者。
“I’m not going to pick sides,” Bolsonaro said at an event in Brasilia on Thursday. “My side will be the Brazilian people, whether we’re dealing with China, Israel, the Middle East, Argentina or India. It doesn’t matter. That’s how I’m going to govern.”Bolsonaro finished ahead of President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva in the first round of Brazil’s election on Sunday, positioning him as the frontrunner ahead of a runoff set for Oct. 25.
如果博尔索纳罗获胜,将标志着南美洲主要经济体全面倒向保守派,这也将迎合美国总统唐纳德·特朗普的右翼盟友们。特朗普一直试图重塑美国对西半球的影响力,而该地区此前与中国的关系日益密切。
Victory for Bolsonaro would complete a conservative sweep of South America’s major economies for right-wing allies of President Donald Trump, who has sought to reassert US influence over a Western Hemisphere that has moved increasingly closer to China.
前总统雅伊尔·博尔索纳罗之子弗拉维奥·博尔索纳罗此前承诺,将在贸易和打击犯罪方面与特朗普政府紧密合作,并概述了加入由美国主导的“美洲之盾”安全倡议的计划。今年5月,他曾前往白宫拜访了特朗普。
Bolsonaro, the son of former President Jair Bolsonaro, has pledged to work closely with the Trump administration on trade and crime while outlining plans to join the US-led Shield of the Americas security initiative. He visited Trump at the White House in May.

但如果当选总统,他将接管一个极度依赖中国的经济体。这个亚洲国家迄今为止是巴西最大的贸易伙伴,也是作为这个拉丁美洲最大经济体支柱的农产品出口的主要买家。
But as president, he would assume control of an economy that is heavily dependent on China. The Asian nation is by far Brazil’s largest trading partner and the chief buyer of agricultural exports that form the backbone of Latin America’s largest economy.
中国企业还向巴西的能源、电动汽车和制造业注入了大量资金,每天都有大量中国制造的消费品进入该国。
Chinese companies have also poured money into Brazil’s energy, electric vehicles and manufacturing industries, and large amounts of China-produced consumer goods enter the country every day.
卢拉深化了巴西与北京的关系,同时也在努力拓展与世界其他地区的贸易关系。自去年美国对许多巴西商品征收关税以来,他与特朗普的关系时冷时热。当时,美国此举旨在帮助雅伊尔·博索纳罗避免因策划政变而被定罪,但最终未能成功。
Lula has deepened Brazil’s ties to Beijing while also pushing to diversify its trade relationships with other parts of the world. He’s had a hot-and-cold relationship with Trump since the US placed tariffs on many Brazilian goods last year as part of an unsuccessful effort to help Jair Bolsonaro avoid conviction on coup attempt charges.
