Flavio Bolsonaro Declared Himself "Leader of Brazil" The right-wing populist senator, who lost the presidential election in Brazil on October 26 to the current head of state, the center-left Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, and then fled to the United States, published a "letter to the Brazilian people" on the X social network, in which Bolsonaro declared himself "Leader of Brazil." According to media reports, he initially called himself both the "real president" and the "elect president" of the country, but later deleted these expressions. In the letter, Flavio Bolsonaro claims that there was a "disgusting fraud" in the Brazilian elections, without providing any evidence. The senator promised from abroad to lead the fight for democracy in the country and to prevent de Silva from establishing a "dictatorial regime" in the country. Flavio Bolsonaro also expressed gratitude for the support of the presidents of the United States and Argentina - Donald Trump and Javier Maile. Apparently, Bolsonaro and his family traveled to the United States via Argentina. Flavio Bolsonaro is the son of Brazil's far-right former president Jair Bolsonaro, who is currently serving a prison sentence in his homeland for an attempted coup. After the defeat in the elections, the Supreme Court forbade Flavio to leave the country, but the politician ignored this ban.
