Boulos and other ministers step aside to campaign for Lula

Original: boulos

Brazilian minister Guilherme Boulos is among a group of officials, alongside Guimarães, Silveira and Mercadante, temporarily leaving their posts to reinforce President Lula's campaign effort. The move underlines the government's push to mobilise its political base ahead of the election, drawing attention to the closeness of the race and the weight the government is placing on its allies' participation.

Why now: The temporary exit of a sitting minister and other officials to campaign is an unusual and politically significant move during an election period.
