Flavio Bolsonaro admitted defeat in the Brazilian presidential election and refused to challenge the results of the second round. According to the newspaper Paula de S. Paul, lawyers and allies convinced the senator to abandon those plans, citing the lack of legal basis and possible political risks. He previously announced his intention to annul the results of the vote. At the same time, the politician had problems with documents. According to him, the judge of the Federal Supreme Court, Alexandre de Morais, ordered a ban on leaving the country and handing over his passport. "I visited my father this morning. When I left, the federal police were standing at the door. I was instructed to hand over my passport. I am also banned from leaving the country," Bolsonaro said in a video message. The incumbent president, Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, won the election with 51.79% of the vote. Bolsonaro has 48.21%.
