Brazil's Flavio Bolsonaro headed to U.S. after losing election, sources say

Ada Derana reports that defeated presidential candidate Flávio Bolsonaro arrived in the United States after Brazil cancelled his passports. Hiru News also reports his arrival, placing it in Miami; Daily Mirror says he landed in the United States on Wednesday.

Daily Mirror reports that Bolsonaro declared himself Brazil’s rightful leader and alleged that the Supreme Court and President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva were responsible for an electoral coup. The outlet says Lula won by more than four million votes.

Hiru News has published contrasting accounts of his departure: one headline says Bolsonaro denied fleeing Brazil, while another describes him as having fled after the election defeat. Newswire’s headline also characterises his departure as a flight, attributing that account to sources.

Newswire’s teaser says the United States had confirmed it would grant Bolsonaro and another party something, but the report text provided ends before specifying what. The supplied reports do not provide further details about what happens next.
