Bolsonaro's Party Recognizes Brazil Election Results

Brazil's Liberal Party, under which President Jair Bolsonaro ran for re-election, has officially recognized the results of Sunday's presidential runoff, according to party president Valdemar Costa Neto on Monday. Bolsonaro lost the election to Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. Costa Neto stated, "We recognize the results of the presidential election," but added that issues raised during the campaign "must be properly clarified." Bolsonaro had previously refused to concede defeat and said he would seek to annul the election results. Separately, Senator Flavio Bolsonaro, the president's son, said a Supreme Court judge ordered him to surrender his passports and banned him from leaving the country. The measure is part of an ongoing investigation into alleged corruption and money laundering linked to a biopic about his father.
