Brazil’s Flávio Bolsonaro and Family to Receive U.S. Visas After Election Loss, State Department Says

A senior U.S. State Department official says Flávio Bolsonaro and his family will receive visas and be allowed to enter the United States. The announcement came after Bolsonaro lost Brazil’s presidential runoff to incumbent Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. Brazilian media reported that Bolsonaro had travelled to the U.S., but his location had not been independently confirmed. The visa news also follows a Brazilian Supreme Court order for Bolsonaro to surrender his passports as part of a money-laundering investigation, which he denies.
