Flávio Bolsonaro, the defeated Brazilian presidential candidate, traveled to the United States via a private Gulfstream G400 aircraft. The plane, registered in Argentina, made a brief stop in Ecuador to refuel before continuing its journey. Bolsonaro, his wife Fernanda Antunes Figueira Bolsonaro, and their two daughters, Carolina and Luiza, boarded the flight at Puerto Iguazú in Argentina's northeast.
The aircraft crossed Paraguay, Bolivia, and Peru, avoiding Brazilian airspace. The final destination of the flight remains uncertain, although Brazilian media reported that the plane was expected to land in Miami. The US State Department had offered visas to Bolsonaro and his family, although it did not confirm whether they received political asylum.
Trump expressed support for the possibility of receiving Bolsonaro, stating that he would approve it.
