Jorge Lasmar

Jorge Lasmar is a professor in the International Relations program at PUC Minas, where he analyzes the implications of classifying criminal organizations as terrorist groups. He emphasizes the distinctions between political terrorism and financially driven criminal activity, arguing that while factions may employ terror tactics, it does not necessarily classify them as terrorist organizations. Lasmar provides insights on how changes to Brazil's anti-terrorism laws could affect businesses and the international perception of the country.
