But the O Globo article says that Bolsonaro told ministers he won't contest election results but he won't congratulate Lula either.
The non-Brazilian press won't be as quick on these things as Brazilian papers. Though of course it's possible O Globo's source is wrong. I haven't yet found it in other Brazilian papers.
