Argentina's government denies reports Flávio Bolsonaro has entered the country

Argentina's government firmly rejected reports on Tuesday that Brazilian Senator Flávio Bolsonaro had entered the country. The Infobae website had earlier claimed that the senator, who lost Sunday's run-off election in neighboring Brazil to President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, had allegedly used a charter flight arranged by Baires Fly aviation company to leave Argentina.

However, authorities dismissed these claims as false, stating that they had no record of Flávio Bolsonaro entering Argentina. The National Directorate of Migration confirmed that there was no evidence of the senator's presence in the country. The migration authority also noted that Baires Fly's documentation was in order and no flight plan involving the Bolsonaro family had been submitted.

The senator himself had stated in a video on Monday that courts had barred him from leaving Brazil, and he expressed his intention to defend himself against these allegations. Brazil's Federal Police and Bolsonaro's campaign coordinator were contacted by the AFP news agency but provided no immediate response. Baires Fly also declined to comment.

Meanwhile, a Brazilian Supreme Court judge ordered police to investigate potential foreign funding for Bolsonaro's campaign. Despite Milei's initial support for Bolsonaro during his presidential campaign, Milei has not commented on Lula's re-election, which will keep him in power until 2030.
