美国国务院因安全隐患宣布从周五起暂停其驻巴西大使馆和领事馆的领事服务1。澳大利亚驻巴西利亚大使馆也随之宣布于周五关闭，称此举是响应美国警报1。
此举发生在巴西总统大选前夕1。大选定于本周日举行，若无候选人获得超过50%的选票，将进入第二轮选举，预计日期为10月25日1。前总统博尔索纳罗因试图推翻上届选举结果已被判处27年监禁1。美国前总统特朗普表示正在"密切关注"巴西选举1，而美国民主党议员曾在9月底表达"严重关切"，指控特朗普政府"协调一致地威胁"与巴西的战略联盟1。卢拉及其盟友随后警告外国干预选举1。
The United States has suspended consular services at its embassy and consulates in Brazil beginning Friday due to security concerns.1 Australia's embassy in Brasília announced it would also close on Friday in response to the US security alert.1
The timing of the suspensions coincides with Brazil's presidential election scheduled for this Sunday, October 6th.1 The race features incumbent leftist President Lula against a right-wing senator linked to former President Bolsonaro.1 A potential runoff election could take place on October 25th if no candidate secures an outright majority.1 Former President Bolsonaro, who has been sentenced to 27 years in prison for attempting to overturn the results of a previous election, remains a significant figure in the political landscape.1
The suspensions come amid heightened international attention on the Brazilian election. US Democratic lawmakers expressed "serious concerns" in late September, alleging that the Trump administration has "coordinated threats" against Brazil's strategic partnership with the United States.1 Former US President Trump stated he is "closely watching" the Brazilian election.1 Meanwhile, Lula and his allies have warned against foreign interference in the electoral process.1
