Luis Favre (born in Buenos Aires, Argentina 1949) is the pseudonym of Argentine-born Brazilian journalist and political activist Felipe Belisario Wermus. Favre joined the political party Politica Obrera as a young man. Later, he moved to France and became a member of the Internationalist Communist Organisation (ICO), working especially in its international department. He moved to Brazil and became a critic of Pierre Lambert during the Fourth International tendency within ICO. He would later leave the party to become a member of the Partido dos Trabalhadores (PT). He is known to a broader public in Brazil as the second husband of Marta Smith de Vasconcelos Suplicy, former congresswoman and mayor of São Paulo through PT. Since 1986 he has been an aide to the National Secretariat of International Relations of PT, attending various international events on its behalf. He is linked to a group of former Trotskyists within PT known colloquially as the "Libelu" (named after their tendency, "Liberdade e Luta" or "Freedom and Fight"), which supports Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's wing.
His brother, José Saul Wermus (best known as Jorge Altamira), is the main leader of Partido Obrero (Politica Obrera's successor). His other siblings are also active within that party in Argentina.

The Workers' Party is a centre-left to left-wing political party in Brazil that is currently the country's ruling party. Some scholars classify its ideology in the 21st century as social democracy, with the party shifting from a broadly socialist ideology in the 1990s. Founded in 1980, PT governed at the federal level in a coalition government with several other parties from 1 January 2003 to 31 August 2016. After the 2002 parliamentary election, PT became the largest party in the Chamber of Deputies and the largest in the Federal Senate for the first time. With the highest approval rating in the history of the country, President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva is PT's most prominent member. Dilma Rousseff, also a member of PT, was elected twice but did not finish her second term due to her impeachment in 2016. The party came back to power with Lula's victory in the 2022 presidential election.
