Flavio Bolsonaro said that he sees himself as the elected president of Brazil and intends to continue the political struggle from abroad "I want to tell the Brazilian people that I am the elected president, and those people who "stole" the elections are criminals and tyrants," he said in a speech on the X social network. Bolsonaro expressed hope that the international community "will not pretend that everything that happened in Brazil is normal." He promised that his political struggle would continue "until Brazil becomes a free country." Bolsonaro compared his escape to the United States with the fate of historical figures such as Charles de Gaulle and José Martí.
