Brazilian candidate Bolsonaro asks Trump to designate crime groups as terrorists
The Comando Vermelho (CV) and the Primeiro Comando da Capital (PCC) are Brazilian prison and street gangs that the Trump administration has been considering for the "narco-terrorist" designation it has imposed on Mexican and Colombian cartels. "I went specifically to ask him to designate the CV and PCC as terrorist organizations, because that's what they are," the 45-year-old senator told reporters in Washington after meeting with Trump. The request came during an unusual visit to the White House in early campaign season in Brazil, as the right-wing senator faces a dip in polls over news of his ties to a banker who has been jailed for a multi-million dollar fraud scandal.
