Brasil convoca a la representante argentina después de que Flávio Bolsonaro usara el país vecino para huir de Estados Unidos
What happened
Brazil's Foreign Ministry summoned Argentina's chargé d'affaires in Brasília, Emilia Cortés, to demand an explanation of Buenos Aires' alleged role in Flávio Bolsonaro's flight to the United States, according to El Nacional.
The meeting was led by Ambassador João Marcelo Galvão de Queiroz, who heads the ministry's Mercosur department.
Brazil asked for details on the senator's passage through Argentine territory and on the actions of senior officials at the Casa Rosada.
Bolsonaro, who lost Sunday's runoff to President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, left Brazil on Tuesday, hours after the police withdrew his passport, and reached Florida on a private jet after stops in Argentina and Ecuador.
Argentine press reports, cited by El Nacional, place presidential adviser Santiago Caputo in Puerto Iguazú to coordinate the senator's entry; Bolsonaro's lawyer Simón Levy said President Javier Milei was involved.
In a live Instagram broadcast, Bolsonaro said he left because he is the victim of «persecution» and gave no details of how he got out.
Brazilian media report that Lula plans to invite Milei and Donald Trump to his January 5 inauguration, according to CNN Brasil, as quoted by Clarín.
