Argentina acknowledges that Flávio Bolsonaro entered the country on his way to the United States via Ecuador
The Argentine government confirmed that Flávio Bolsonaro, the former Brazilian presidential candidate, entered Argentina before heading to the U.S. via Ecuador. He and his family crossed the border late on October 27, 2023, using valid travel documents. They were escorted to a private flight to Guayaquil, Ecuador, shortly after their arrival. Reports suggest that plans for their escape were made weeks prior to the elections, with Eduardo Bolsonaro coordinating discussions with U.S. officials for potential asylum. Following his electoral defeat, a Brazilian judge revoked Flávio's passports, but he chose to flee instead of complying with the order.
