Carlos Bolsonaro apologizes to father Jair in Brasília visit
Brazilian senator-elect Carlos Bolsonaro visited former President Jair Bolsonaro in Brasília on Wednesday, October 28, and apologized for the family's political failure, saying "I'm sorry, dad, we failed" regarding brother Flávio Bolsonaro's election defeat. Carlos spent about two hours with his father and said Jair Bolsonaro is still processing recent events but remains strong and determined to continue. The former president reportedly encouraged him, saying "Lift your head, let's go. There's still much to do for Brazil." The visit comes after Flávio Bolsonaro, who lost Sunday's presidential election, fled Brazil in a secret operation, defying a Supreme Federal Court order to surrender his passports to federal police. Carlos did not comment on his brother's departure.
