Brazil's Bolsonaro Flees to Ecuador After Entering Argentina
Brazilian right-wing candidate Flavio Bolsonaro fled to Ecuador on Wednesday after entering Argentina, defying a Supreme Court ban on his exit following his election loss to Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva. The 45-year-old boarded a private flight from Puerto Iguazu to Guayaquil with his wife and daughters, later heading toward an unknown destination, with tracking data suggesting Miami. Argentina confirmed his entry was legal despite the court order, while Brazil canceled his passports. Bolsonaro faces corruption and money-laundering investigations, and his loss strips parliamentary immunity. His father, former leader Jair Bolsonaro, remains under house arrest for coup-plotting, and Lula called the escape "shameful," while Trump claimed the election was "rigged."
