Al Jazeera English published this video item, entitled “Why is President Bolsonaro’s popularity on the rise in Brazil? | Counting the Cost” – below is their description.

So what is the reason for this? Plus – Mexican farmers fear what little water they have will be given to the US. And a British start-up joins a crowded field to develop an electric flying car. –
