SAO PAULO (Reuters) – Approval of Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva’s way of governing has dipped in the past month, a poll showed on Monday, falling below disapproval ratings for the first time in his current term.

The Genial/Quaest poll showed that 47% of those surveyed approve of Lula’s performance as president, down from 52% in December and the lowest since he took office in January 2023. Disapproval rose to 49% from 47% last month.
