Former Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has been convicted on corruption charges and sentenced to nineandahalf years in prison. Lula, widely considered one of Brazil’s most popular political figures, is the frontrunner in the 2018 elections. We look at how this development could impact his presidential bid, and we speak with Pulitzer Prizewinning journalist Glenn Greenwald, cofounder of The Intercept.
