Flavio Bolsonaro has made his first public appearance since travelling to the US on November 5 following his defeat to Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva in Brazil’s presidential election.
The 45-year-old appeared as a speaker at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), held at US President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida.
According to US officials, a White House official arranged the private jet that flew Bolsonaro to Miami, while Trump personally authorised his entry into the country on October 27, just two days after his election loss.
Bolsonaro is facing several investigations in Brazil, including over alleged money laundering and corruption. His departure came after Brazilian authorities ordered him to surrender his passport.

Turkish parliament has ratified the Mecca Joint Defence Agreement, a defence pact between Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Türkiye.
Under the agreement, approved by the Turkish lawmakers early on Friday, an attack on one party constitutes an attack on all. The agreement was approved by 279 votes to 119 in the 600-seat parliament.
The agreement was signed in the Saudi holy city of Mecca by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, President Erdogan and Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on August 7, pledging to strengthen collective security, deepen defence cooperation and promote peace and stability in the region and beyond.
According to the agreement, the grouping’s secretariat will be based in Saudi Arabia, and retired Pakistani General Nauman Mahmood has been selected as its first secretary-general. The pact binds the parties for 10 years, after which they would need to provide a three-month notice to leave.
