Flávio Bolsonaro and family land in Miami after leaving Brazil following election defeat
Summary
Brazilian Senator Flávio Bolsonaro and his family arrived in Miami after he left Brazil following his defeat in Sunday's presidential election to leftist incumbent Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. Reports differ on the day: Africanews said they landed on Monday, while France 24 and CBC said Wednesday. The Times of Israel reported that he refused orders from Brazilian courts to hand over his passports in a money-laundering probe and secretly traveled to the United States, and its headline links the move to an offer of an exit from Brazil by Trump. France 24 reported that the US State Department said on Tuesday it had granted entry visas to him and his family. The Guardian reported that the jet carrying him left Guayaquil in Ecuador, that he left the Miami airport under police escort without speaking to the press, and that Argentina's migration authorities said he had entered their country by land on Tuesday night after he had been out of sight for more than 24 hours. NPR reported that he is facing multiple investigations in Brazil.
