Trump says Flavio Bolsonaro can stay in US 'as long as he wants'

oglobo.globo.com (Portuguese) — November 1, 2026 at 06:01 PM UTC

US President Donald Trump said Senator Flavio Bolsonaro can stay in the US "as long as he wants," speaking Saturday at his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida, where he also stated he has no plans to meet the Brazilian lawmaker. The statement came hours after US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Washington did not directly intervene in Bolsonaro's departure from Brazil, noting he already held a visa and that Trump allowed his entry. Bolsonaro fled Brazil Wednesday after Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes ordered him to surrender his passports. Bolsonaro is under investigation for money laundering and currency evasion. He traveled via Argentina and Ecuador on a plane reportedly chartered by Trump aide Jason Miller, with payment made from a US bank account. Bolsonaro claims he is Brazil's true leader and fled due to persecution.
