Brazil’s ex-president Jair Bolsonaro says he does not want to become opposition leader in his home country. But he will work with his party and work for them, Bolsonaro told CNN Brasil on Wednesday (local time) ahead of his planned return from the United States to the South American country. He wants to travel through Brazil and talk to supporters.
“CNN Brasil” showed how Bolsonaro took pictures with supporters at the Orlando airport and got through security checks. The broadcaster accompanies the return of Bolsonaro, who would arrive in the Brazilian capital Brasília on Thursday morning (local time).
The right-wing Bolsonaro was defeated by left-wing politician Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva in the run-off election for president in October 2022. Two days before the end of his term on New Year’s Eve, Bolsonaro flew with his family to the United States, where he has remained ever since . According to media reports, he has applied for a six-month tourist visa.
On January 8, Bolsonaro supporters, unwilling to recognize Lula’s electoral victory, stormed Congress, the seat of government and the Supreme Court in Brasília, causing significant damage. The Supreme Court, based in the capital, is investigating, among other things, the “intellectual authorship” and the role of Bolsonaro. (sda/dpa)
