巴西前总统博尔索纳罗在2022年大选落败后,在其任期最后几天试图通过一份政变法令推翻卢拉的当选。1国防部长诺格拉将这份政变法令草案递给三军司令,提议推翻卢拉2022年10月的当选。1然而,空军司令巴普蒂斯塔·朱尼奥尔拒绝接收该文件,声明"空军不会参与其中"并离开会议室,陆军司令弗雷雷·戈麦斯也拒绝参与,政变因此未能推进。1调查和审判结论认为政变失败的主要原因正是三军中这两名司令的拒绝。1
巴普蒂斯塔·朱尼奥尔近日出版新书详细披露了这一事件,定于9月15日出版,译题为《我说不了!——反政变堡垒》。1他在新书中透露,这段经历让他失去了许多友谊。1在拒绝参与政变后,巴普蒂斯塔遭到包括军中人士的攻击,被称作"叛徒"或"西瓜"(讽刺绿色制服内藏红色共产主义)。1巴普蒂斯塔在2024年向联邦警察作证时才首次公开披露这一事件。1与此同时,海军司令桑托斯和国防部长诺格拉被判有罪,博尔索纳罗被软禁。1
尽管事件已过,民调显示约三分之一的人口仍不相信发生过政变企图。1
Brazil's former air force commander has disclosed his pivotal role in thwarting a coup attempt during former President Jair Bolsonaro's final days in office. Air Force Commander Carlos de Almeida Baptista Junior refused to accept a draft coup decree from Defense Minister Nóbrega in December 2022, declaring that "the air force will not participate in this" and walking out of the meeting 1. Army Commander Marcos Antonio Freire Gomes likewise rejected involvement, preventing the plot from advancing 1.
The coup attempt followed Bolsonaro's defeat in the October 2022 election to Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. Investigations and trials have since concluded that the refusal of two of the three military commanders was the primary reason the coup failed 1. Naval Commander Santos and Defense Minister Nóbrega were convicted, while Bolsonaro faced house arrest 1. Baptista Junior first publicly disclosed his role during testimony to federal police in 2024, detailing his decision to block the initiative 1.
The revelation comes as Baptista Junior publishes a new book scheduled for September 15 release, with the working title "I Said No!—The Anti-Coup Fortress" 1. His stance came at a significant personal cost; he faced attacks from military figures and others who branded him a traitor or used derisive terms questioning his loyalty 1. Despite the historical record, polling data indicates approximately one-third of Brazil's population still disbelieves a coup attempt occurred 1.
