Geraldo Nataniel Torres (born January 9, 1979) is an Esteiran politician who has been serving as the Speaker of the National People's Assembly of Esteira since 2020. He has served as the representative of Porto Verde's 1st District since 2006. He is a high ranking member of Esteira's only legal political party, the Esteiran People's Party. Torres is the second youngest person to serve as Assembly Speaker, following Luis Souza.
Torres joined the Esteiran Air Force after he turned 18 in 1997. He rose to the rank of staff sergeant and after an honorable discharge in 2005, Torres entered politics. He was elected to represent Porto Verde, District 1 in 2006, a position that he has held since. Son of former Police General Mateus Torres, he is a staunch supporter of President Luis Souza and is regularly invited to the Palácio do Presidente.
His close relationship to Souza is widely believed to have led to his nomination to Speaker over longer serving party members.
