Tarcísio acknowledges Lula's win, avoids comment on Flávio Bolsonaro's passport case
São Paulo Governor Tarcísio de Freitas publicly acknowledged President Lula's election victory in a video posted Tuesday, while avoiding comment on alleged plans by Senator Flávio Bolsonaro to flee the country. In his message, Tarcísio thanked the 60 million voters who supported the campaign and emphasized that recognizing the result does not mean staying silent on government excesses, including judicial interference and campaign promises needing scrutiny. The governor, a close ally of Flávio, did not address the senator's passport cancellation by federal police Tuesday after he defied a Supreme Court order, instead focusing on Congress's role in national pacification and his continued work in São Paulo.
