[Brazil] Protests: Peaceful protest

Summary

Single-source ACLED detection — awaiting independent verification. On March 30, 2025, approximately 100 people gathered in Brasilia to protest demanding accountability for the January 8, 2023 attacks on government buildings, including calls for consequences for former President Jair Bolsonaro. The demonstration was organized by the Workers' Party (PT) and remained peaceful.

Supply chain impact

No commodities or chokepoints are directly mapped to this event; second-order effects depend on how the situation escalates. Given the small scale and peaceful nature of this protest in Brazil's capital, immediate supply chain disruptions are unlikely unless demonstrations expand significantly or turn disruptive.

Watch points

• Monitor for escalation in protest size or frequency around government accountability issues in Brazil's major economic centers
• Track any broader political tensions that could affect policy stability in Latin America's largest economy
