Post‑election crisis in Brazil
It was reported that Senator Flávio Bolsonaro, who lost the presidential election in Brazil to Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, has gone to the United States. It was announced that Bolsonaro and his family, who are said to have refused to surrender their passports, will be granted U.S. visas.
According to information obtained, Flávio Bolsonaro left Brazil for the United States on October 27 after the election defeat on October 25. Sources said Bolsonaro met his brother Eduardo Bolsonaro in Florida.
U.S. President Donald Trump said he supported Bolsonaro’s arrival in the country while criticizing the election process. A senior official from the U.S. State Department also announced that Bolsonaro and his family would be granted visas and allowed entry into the country.
The passports were cancelled.
The Brazilian Supreme Court had decided that Flávio Bolsonaro would hand over his passports and refrain from leaving the country as part of an investigation into money‑laundering allegations. It was reported that his passports were cancelled because he failed to submit the documents within the allotted time.
Bolsonaro, who has not yet been formally charged in the ongoing investigation, denies the allegations.
Lula: Shameful
Brazil's President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva criticized Bolsonaro for leaving the country. Lula argued that a person who believes he is innocent would not secretly leave his country, describing the situation as 'shameful'.
Bolsonaro, on the other hand, had stated that he did not accept the election results and announced that he would pursue legal action to annul them.
