Brazil's far-right leader, Flávio Bolsonaro, arrived in the United States despite a travel ban issued the morning after his defeat in the presidential runoff. The situation sparked uncertainty in Brazil and Argentina, as Bolsonaro vanished from Brasilia after posting a video stating he would follow the decision. He reappeared in Miami after traveling from Argentina, where he allegedly crossed the border on Tuesday at 10:50 PM through the Tancredo Neves international bridge.
Bolsonaro and his wife and two daughters used valid travel documentation, including an Italian passport for him and Brazilian passports for his family members. According to Argentine customs, there were no records of Bolsonaro entering the country, leading to speculation. Brazilian authorities did not view his actions as a legal violation due to the lack of an international order or Interpol warrant.
