Brazil Summons Argentine Envoy Over Bolsonaro's Son's Flight to US

usnews.com —

Brazil summoned Argentina's top diplomat in Brasilia to explain Buenos Aires' role in Senator Flavio Bolsonaro's departure to the US after his election loss, two Brazilian government sources said Friday, though Argentina denied the move. The foreign ministry received charge d'affaires Maria Emilia Cortes on Thursday, amid strained ties following President Javier Milei's insults toward Brazil's leader. Bolsonaro, son of imprisoned ex-President Jair Bolsonaro, flew to Miami via Argentina and Ecuador, thanking Milei for assistance. His exit violated a Supreme Court order to surrender passports in a money-laundering probe. Argentina's foreign minister said no explanation was requested, while Brazil's ministry declined comment.
