PL chief rejects Flávio Bolsonaro's letter claiming presidency
The president of Brazil's Liberal Party (PL), Valdemar Costa Neto, publicly criticized a letter released by Senator Flávio Bolsonaro, stating "I didn't like it" upon arriving at former President Jair Bolsonaro's residence on Thursday. The letter, published Wednesday, initially declared Flávio Bolsonaro the "true elected president of Brazil" following the second round of the presidential election that reelected Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, before being updated to call him "leader of Brazil." The senator's statement came after Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes canceled his passport. Costa Neto's reaction highlights internal party tensions following Flávio Bolsonaro's travel to the United States, which was prompted by the court's decision to revoke his travel documents.
