Overview

• Ciro Nogueira had publicly said Eduardo Bolsonaro caused a “gigantic loss” to the 2026 project and asserted the Centrão would run the opposition’s presidential campaign.
• After those remarks, Eduardo replied from the United States on X accusing Ciro of pursuing a personal plan, and Ciro posted a rebuttal defending his motives.
• O Globo reports the two spoke by phone Monday night and agreed to a truce, with Ciro saying the matter is “resolved and overcome” even as they follow different paths toward the same goal of winning in 2026.
• Centrão leaders signal openness to Jair Bolsonaro as a campaign surrogate but resist placing a family member on the ticket, a stance echoed by PL chief Valdemar Costa Neto’s earlier warning to Eduardo.
• Ciro also linked Eduardo’s actions abroad to political fallout he argues benefited Lula, and the latest Genial/Quaest polling shows Lula leading tested 2026 scenarios, intensifying pressure on the right to unify.
