Brazil in Focus 06/2026

Download and read the new issue of the “Brasil em Foco” series for free. This June’s issue highlights two key issues for Brazilian democracy in 2026. In the first article, an overview of Senate election polls points to the rise of right-wing parties and significant losses for currently dominant parties, showing how the 2026 election could reshape the balance of power between the executive and legislative branches over the next eight years. The second article analyzes the expansion of data centers in the country and highlights the gap between Brazil’s energy potential and its actual data processing capacity, revealing the risks of digital sovereignty that is merely rhetorical if it is not accompanied by its own infrastructure and a regulatory framework capable of translating this competitive advantage into benefits for the domestic market.
