Brazilian police have nearly finished clearing hundreds of roadblocks by supporters of far-right President Jair Bolsonaro, who have been protesting since his election loss to veteran leftist Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.
Pro-Bolsonaro protests outside military bases had dwindled in Brasilia on Friday morning to just 100 while in Sao Paulo there remained about 300 and all had cleared out in Rio de Janeiro, the AFP news agency said. The outgoing president met briefly on Thursday with vice president-elect Geraldo Alckmin, who is heading Lula's transition team.
