SÃO PAULO – Key figures in Brazil’s Workers’ Party (PT) have rallied around President Dilma Rousseff at the party’s national conference on Friday in an attempt to put an end to rumours that the party’s former president, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, could run as the party’s presidential candidate in this year’s general elections.
UPDATE: Rousseff officially confirmed as party’s candidate, and Lula tells conference there is “no other candidate” but warns party “won’t have easy campaign”.
