Brazilian minister says Bolsonaro family is a political burden for Trump

poder360.com.br (Portuguese) —

Brazilian minister José Guimarães said the Bolsonaro family has become a "political burden" for US President Donald Trump, following Senator Flávio Bolsonaro's flight to the United States after his presidential election defeat. Guimarães noted US Secretary of State Marco Rubio denied American government involvement in Flávio's escape, adding the episode gains traction ahead of US midterm elections. Trump said he has no plans to meet Flávio but welcomed him in Florida. Flávio left Brazil on October 27 with his family, claiming persecution by the Supreme Court. Federal Police requested his passport seizure seven minutes after the election result was announced, with Lula winning 51.79% of votes.
