Bolsonaro Says 'Brazil Free From Socialism'

Brazil's newly inaugurated President Jair Bolsonaro says his election has freed the country from "socialism and political correctness" and he's vowed to tackle corruption, crime and economic mismanagement.Bolsonaro, a former army captain turned lawmaker who openly admires Brazil's 1964-1985 military dictatorship, promised in his first remarks as president to adhere to democratic norms, after his tirades against the media and political opponents stirred unease.While investors hope Bolsonaro's free-market stance will reinvigorate Brazil's economy - environmentalists and rights groups are worried he will roll back protections for the Amazon rain forest and loosen gun controls in a country that already has the world's highest number of murders.
