Hervé Théry

But that is, I think, one of the fundamental things at stake in Sunday's presidential election.

Hervé Théry, what happened before 1983 when it was a military dictatorship, is that ancient history? And is that attempted coup for which Javier Bolsonaro was convicted and sentenced just four years ago, is that also ancient history?

It seems so, because people are living very much in the present time.

So you cannot even speak to them of things that are 20 years ago.

I want to thank you, Philippe Leroutzin, for joining us from Berlin.

I want to thank Valentina Satter in Washington, Tim Vickery in Rio de Janeiro, who will be burning the midnight oil on Sunday.

Hervé Théry, thank you for being with us here in the France 24 debate.
